The Walkable Springfield Project is a collaborative partnership between the Healthy Living Alliance (HLA), the City of Springfield, the Springfield-Greene County Health Department, Missouri State University, Springfield Public Schools, and the League of Women Voters. The luncheon is co-sponsored by the City of Springfield, the Healthy Living Alliance (HLA) and Missouri State University’s Office of Citizenship and Service-Learning. In the fall of 2013, over 400 service-learning students engaged in the assessment and evaluation of hundreds of streets in some 12 Springfield, Missouri neighborhoods. Their findings will lay the foundation for and promote on-going dialogue with city officials and the community at large as to how best improve the streets and neighborhoods of the Springfield community.
