For the past three years, Safe Routes to School has partnered with Bike First! (in affiliation with Loose the Training Wheels) to offer clinics for students with disabilities. The Bike First! helps children with disabilities or special needs gain stability to master the skills needed to balance and steer a two-wheeled bicycle allowing them to play with their siblings and peers with new confidence. The clinics have helped students ranging from autism, mild cerebral palsy to Down syndrome ride a bike.

If you know a child at your school who could benefit from a bike clinic please have their parents register them at the Bike First website, www.bikefirstlttw.com.

Safe Routes to School offers sponsorships for students with IEPs who attend our partner schools. For more information about Safe Routes sponsorships, please contact Carolina at 503-823-1189 or at carolina.iraheta@portlandoregon.gov
