“A New Model for Public-Private Partnership in California”
How can public lands not only survive, but flourish, when faced with climate threats, budget cuts and ongoing challenges? Parks California was established by the California legislature as the official statutory nonprofit partner to the nation’s largest and most diverse state parks system. Working at the nexus of community, Tribes, nonprofits and government, learn how this new partnership model is creating vibrant, healthy parks that meet the needs of all people. (link)
