The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the importance of parks and paths in our community. As more people have explored these critical green spaces, often for the first time, they may be surprised by their quality and accessibility.
Atlanta Regional Commission’s latest webinar on People, Parks, Paths and the Pandemic explores the importance of public spaces in our collective response to the pandemic and, most importantly, what plans are in place to grow the region’s park spaces in the years to come. Park Pride’s Executive Director, Michael Halicki, shares a regional perspective on greenspace and makes the new case for why parks and trails are more critical than ever.
