What we’ll do nextIn the next six months we will take the following acJons to improve our work based on consJtuent feedback: 1. Increase diversity We want our consJtuency to reflect the diversity of the St. Louis region. As we plan our 2016 calendar, we will expand our partnerships to include even more groups that represent people of color, the LGBTQ community, women, and younger residents. 2. Increase the effec3veness of our advocacy We have already taken great strides to improve our advocacy in 2015 by increasing advocacy staffing and establishing a board commiiee. We will take further acJon by enhancing our communicaJons through a featured secJon within our newsleier and establishing a consJtuent commiiee to shape our advocacy agenda. 3. Enhance the Quality of Bicycle Fun Rides To enhance the rider experience, we will create a focus group and survey for BFC riders to give input into our 2016 calendar of rides.
