What would happen if every child in our community had an amazing place to play outdoors in nature where they felt free, safe, healthy, empowered, and joyful? That’s the vision of the Children at Play Network.
That vision requires teamwork. That vision needs you. Together we can create a national model for how an entire community can pull together to value outdoor play for the health of all.
We ask you to support that vision by formally joining the network and putting your weight behind the work of making outdoor play a top community value.
By joining, you support play advocates and the organizing, networking, communications, and convening efforts to provide them a collective voice.
