Description
The Minneapolis Parks Foundation, a key partner with the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, shares the Park Board’s vision to ensure an equitable Minneapolis Park System for all residents. The Minneapolis Parks Foundation plays an important role in leveraging the Park Board’s current equity efforts through innovative partnerships and collaborations. As the Park Board initiates equity initiative and tools, Minneapolis Parks Foundation seeks to identify areas for innovation and collaboration to support park equity efforts. This report examines current Park Board equity efforts in the context of existing research and ongoing racial equity efforts across the country. Current equity efforts, such as RecQuest and the new equity investment criteria, utilize equity criteria to identify and prioritize park investment and programming. These equity efforts are in early stages of development and implementation and can benefit from perspectives offered by park equity efforts in other cities nationwide. This report identifies three opportunities that can inform Minneapolis Park Foundation partnerships and collaborations.
