Vision Zero Cincinnati Steering Committee
Vision Zero is a world-wide movement focused on zero serious injuries and deaths due to automobile crashes. A program of the Devou Good Foundation, Vision Zero Cincinnati brings this global mission to the local level. This volunteer steering committee will be tasked with co-hosting events with neighborhood groups, community organizers, and other non-profit organizations to raise awareness, build membership, engage with elected officials, and bring about change to our streets through improvements to the built environment that will slow drivers at high injury intersections and high injury road networks.
Each neighborhood that Vision Zero / DGF has worked with is eligible to nominate one person (transportation chair or others) to the committee.
DGF will nominate representatives from neighborhoods that may not have formal representation.
Committee seats are a 3-year term.
Committee representatives will elect amongst themselves a committee chair and vice-chair to serve a one-year term. Committee representatives agree to share the task equally in the taking of meeting minutes.
DGF will provide support in the form of professional photographers, video equipment, video post-production, marketing communications through email, social media, website blog, and press releases. DGF will provide a paid Zoom account for meetings.
DGF will provide $50,000 for the first year to be spent on furthering the Vision Zero mission at the discretion of the committee.
DGF will provide a liaison for the steering committee.
All applications are subject to approval by DGF.
