We offer a wide range of learning and networking opportunities for people interested in caring for local parks and green spaces. Whether you are just starting out or a dedicated partner, we have something for you, including workshops and info sessions, trainings, coaching, and more.
Join us at our free Partnerships Academy workshops offered throughout the year. They are a great way to learn the skills needed to get involved with, build, or sustain a community group dedicated to a local park or green space. Our workshops cover working with elected officials, fundraising, getting to know NYC Parks, group development, and more.

It’s My Park
It’s My Park is our signature program to engage volunteers in hands-on service projects throughout New York City neighborhood parks. Our online training provides information about important It’s My Park processes and resources in order to help community leaders successfully host beautification projects in local parks. This training is for dedicated, long-term park stewards, or those who are interested in becoming one. If this is you, check out our training.
Coaching is a form of one-on-one, tailored support provided to community groups dedicated to a local park. Interested groups must be recommended by a community engagement coordinator and go through a screening process. Speak to your community engagement coordinator if you are interested in one-on-one coaching.
Because of you, NYC’s kids are learning how to protect our environment and being introduced to a new sport for life, community volunteers are transforming a green space in need of care, and free world-class performing arts are being brought to our parks all around the city—all for free. When you support City Parks Foundation's free programs, you are helping our parks, our communities, and our city thrive.
