Join us for a productive day of discussion, interaction, and engagement around building resilient communities in unprecedented and challenging times through partnership, innovation, and quick pivoting of resources. The past year has tested our resolve, relationships (professionally and personally) and resilience. We want to share this time together to hear your insight from your experiences creating engaging opportunities for social, emotional, mental and physical health within your community utilizing parks, recreation, health interventions, placemaking or any other creative programs. Come be part of the conversation because that is how we learn, grow, and become sustainable. (Session descriptions and full agenda) Click here for the Summit 2021 Page
