Help CCLR and WRT Develop Park Funding Framework Guide

Building parks is a vital investment in our collective well-being, but 100 million people in the USA, including 28 million children, don’t have a park within a 10-minute walk from home. To help address this disparity, CCLR and WRT have partnered to create a funding resource aimed at helping resource-limited and overburdened communities build capacity, gain knowledge, and eventually develop parks. As a key player in the redevelopment field, your input on this survey will be instrumental in shaping a more relevant and supportive resource. We thank you for your support.
