The 2022 Park People Report focuses on how collaboration, mindfulness, and power-sharing in parks can help nurture and repair relationships between ourselves, our communities, and the wider natural world. The report includes data on the latest national and local trends in parks including the observed trend of increased interested in adventure play in parks (e.g., nature playgrounds, loose parts play), with key insights, action-based takeaways, and stories from city staff, community leaders, academics and others on how to continue to advance play, access, equity, community engagement, and collaboration to support our parks and park systems.
