About the Conference

SafeRide Programs United (SRPU) serves as a centrally organized resource, archive of information, and support system for existing and prospective safe ride programs. SRPU seeks to promote safe ride programs nationwide.

 

The SRPU Conference is a time when representatives from safe ride programs across the country come together to talk about their respective organizations, learn from each other, and help other schools start their own safe ride program. No two safe ride programs are the same as, structure and operations vary based on location, size, finances, and the community where schools exist. This conference provides a platform for sharing and enables participants to learn about the other programs, return to their schools to build upon these ideas and provide the most efficient and effective safe rides.

 

During the conference, we will have several presentations in which programs from other schools will present specific topics and other UA entities will present about their respective organizations. If your program is interested in presenting during the conference, please go to 'Presentation Proposal' and fill out the proposal form. Discussion topics range from operations, risk management, fundraising, member relations, technology, public relations, and more. If your program is interested in hearing about a particular topic during the conference, please go to 'Contact Us' and let us know!
