About us

Park People connects people and communities with the tools they need to create great parks for everyone. Park People is the only national, bilingual organization solely dedicated to championing city parks in Canada. Since 2011, we’ve collaborated with thousands of community leaders, non-profit park organizations, and park professionals to realize the incredible potential of our urban green spaces. Park People’s work is grounded in our core values of reciprocity, ecological integrity, and social equity. We believe that parks are vital to the health of Canada’s cities and our environment, and that everyone—regardless of their income, identity, ability, or age—deserves equal access to the benefits of public green space. We centre equity-deserving communities in our program planning and delivery, and we seek to foster deep relationships both with and between our collaborators. We also recognize the critical leadership role of Indigenous communities in protecting and restoring nature in our urban centres, and we seek to learn alongside them in their efforts.
