PLAY ·2024 Grants ChallengeShared Grounds: Bridging Generations Across Nature
This pilot will increase access to parks and other green spaces for low-income communities of color, specifically older adults in LA’s Chinatown and API and Latinx youth in the San Gabriel Valley (SGV). An intergenerational learning approach will be integrated to cultivate collective knowledge, understand participants' needs to safely access local green spaces, and develop an intergenerational cohort of nature champions. Together, participants will attend field trips to nature and strengthen their relationships through nature-based activities.
