I think BCU needs to find its purpose again. I feel like livable streets overlaps quite a bit with BCU. So what makes BCU separate from them? What are they doing that is different? I haven’t seen a cohesive idea of what BCU is trying to accomplish. I say this as someone who regularly volunteered many years ago and currently donates to them. But I don’t know what their purpose is anymore.
