THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Racial Equity/Justice, Urban Youth, Urban Parks/Green Space, Community, Environmental Health
Deadline: Nov. 4, 2021 (letters of intent)
“The People, Parks, and Power initiative comes at a critical moment. Imbalances in political and economic power and a legacy of racial discrimination in the conservation movement have excluded groups led by people of color from full participation in park and green space work or have tokenized their involvement. The P3 initiative is grounded in the premise that urban parks are essential community infrastructure that should serve every neighborhood in a fair, just, and safe manner, without displacing longtime residents or community-serving businesses. P3 will support community-based organizations and base-building groups working in urban, low-income communities of color across the United States to increase park equity through local policy and systems change. The geographic focus of the P3 initiative is urban areas—with a particular interest in small and midsized cities (under 500,000 population).”
Funder: The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
Eligibility: “Applicant organizations must be either public entities or nonprofit organizations that are tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRC and are not private foundations or nonfunctionally integrated Type III supporting organizations.”
Amount: Up to $500,000
