Going Places is a community driven intervention to increase transportation self-efficacy among low-income youth, enabling access to community-based programs that promote physical activity and improve long term cardiometabolic health. Going Places was co-developed under the joint leadership of Duke and Durham Parks and Recreation (DPR). Going Places is pilot tested and fully functional. The intervention incorporates a multi-level approach that includes 1) workshops on navigating local transportation systems; 2) field trips and participatory assets mapping activities; and 3) youth transportation advocacy.
