Healthy Outdoor Communities:

The mission of Healthy Outdoor Communities is to support good health and wellbeing in children, youth, and families of historically undervalued communities by utilizing free, safe, and easily accessible neighborhood parks and green spaces. We achieve this mission by equipping community members with tools to advocate for local parks and green spaces, supporting fun and informative community-led park programs, and encouraging healthier, more active lifestyles. Our work in the Acres Home and Third Ward communities is supported in large part by generous funding from the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health and invaluable guidance from the Prevention Institute.
