Complete Parks Playbook
- Abstract
Parks bring numerous health, social, economic, and environmental benefits to a community, and every person in every neighborhood should be able to enjoy these benefits. Unfortunately, too many cities and counties are “park poor,” lacking adequate parks and green spaces. Low-income communities often have the fewest (and worst-maintained) facilities. Many communities are now looking for ways to expand and improve their parks systems, while grappling with how to persuade decision makers that parks should be consistently funded and prioritized as essential infrastructure.
