The Trust for Public Land ParkScore index is the national
gold-standard comparison of park systems across the largest 100 cities
in the United States.
Join us for this special edition Park Bench Chat to break down the new
rankings and, for the first time ever, get a data-driven look
at park equity across America's largest cities. The
new ParkScore rankings highlight the extent of disparities in
park space along racial and economic lines.

More details about our conversation:
Join me in conversation with Trust for Public Land experts including
Director of Innovation and Strategy Linda Hwang, Equity Director Ronda
Chapman, Director of Community Health Sadiya Muqueeth, and Climate
Program Director Brendan Shane.
Inspired by the national awakening on racial justice and The Trust for
Public Land's longstanding commitment to equitable park access
and quality, the 2021 ParkScore index includes measures of park equity
for the first time in the study's ten-year history.
We'll discuss this year's rankings, which highlight deep
disparities along racial and economic lines; ways parks and recreation
departments stepped up to provide critical community infrastructure
during the pandemic; and how, despite their vital health and climate
benefits, park systems nationwide are under serious threat, facing
years of deferred maintenance and underinvestment. We'll also
share how we can quickly turn this around and bring parks and green
space to communities where they are needed most.
Space is limited so I hope you'll register today!
