Park Advocacy 2021
In 2021, PTNY is continuing to give our parks a voice and interact with the state’s decision makers on a personal level. Given the social distancing guidelines, we have reimagined Park Advocacy Day (PAD) to be completely virtual. The event will be smaller and more targeted, prioritizing broadly-accessible programming and high-quality legislative visits, but there will still be lots of opportunities for the public to get involved. From an advocacy storytelling workshop to a social media toolkit to an easy-to-use letter writing campaign, there are endless ways to make your voice heard.
