About us: We are a group of concerned citizens who are working to make Whittier Boulevard a safe place for everyone. After the terrible incident regarding Joshua Mora, an 8th grader at Hollenbeck Middle School who played basketball and lost his leg after a hit and run while crossing the intersection at Orme and Whittier, we are motivated to come together to demand change and build a safe crossing there.
