Helped secure millions of dollars for parks and park equity

Prevention Institute supported a successful ballot measure that will provide more than $90 million annually for parks and open spaces in Los Angeles County. PI also made sure the implementation of the ballot measure would help eliminate park inequities in park-poor, low-income Latino and Black neighborhoods. PI helped build and strengthen the Park Equity Alliance, a network of community organizations and leaders who advocated both for the original ballot measure and the implementation guidelines to ensure health equity commitments will be met. * This work was supported by The California Endowment and the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Foundation. NOTE: Prevention Institute relies only on unrestricted funds to support our limited grassroots and direct lobbying efforts.
