The National Shared Use Task Force Created Shared Use Ambassadorship Program

Share On Social!

In the Spring of 2016, the National Shared Use Task Forced announced the winners of the Shared Use Ambassadorship Program, a new national recognition program that acknowledges the work of researchers, practitioners, and policymakers who are advancing shared use in their respective communities.

The goal is not only to recognize individuals, but to collect and share success stories across the country in the shared use field as a way to encourage others.

“They are at the forefront of some of the most creative and effective shared use strategies, from engaging hospitals and exploring the role of shared use in hospital settings, to amplifying the youth voice to effectively advocate for shared use in their schools, to tackling the challenges of shared use implementation in rural Appalachia,” said Mikaela Randolph of the Safe Routes to School National Partnership.
