California Expands Outdoor Access Across the State
December 28, 2023
Governor Gavin Newsom today highlighted $41.9 million in new grants announced by California State Parks for eight projects that expand outdoor access in underserved communities across the state.
The grants were awarded through round four of the Statewide Park Development and Community Revitalization Grant Program, which has to date provided approximately $1.2 billion to California communities for new and renovated outdoor recreation spaces.
The Statewide Park Program advances the state’s commitment to expanding safe and equitable outdoor access for all Californians, including through the California State Park Adventure Pass and State Library Parks Pass programs which make it easier for children and families to explore our State Park System.
