Advocate for Your park
Austin’s parks consistently face critical funding shortfalls - holding them back from being the best they can be. We must close this gap and improve parks for every Austinite!
Austin Parks Foundation’s advocacy is critical to the health of Austin’s parks system. We demand equitable funding for Austin’s parks, and we need your help to make this a reality.

Understanding What Our Parks Need
Austin has an amazing parks system. We have nearly 300 parks, 227 miles of trails and more than 20,000 acres of green space. Our parklands provide vital green space and wildlife habitat, and keep our environment healthy.
Parks and trails also have tremendous economic, health, ecological and educational benefits. Unfortunately, annual investments in Austin parks are not keeping pace with the needs of our growing city.
