OUR VISION We envision a vibrant, high-quality, and equitable Philadelphia park system for everyone. GUIDING PRINCIPLES -Parks go beyond recreation. They have ecological, economic, historic, social, cultural and public health value. -Parks bring people of all backgrounds into public life, connecting communities to civic assets where trust can be formed. -Diversity, equity and inclusion are the foundations of a healthy park system. -Intentional and equitable park investments welcome people to public spaces where they historically have not been welcome. -Collaboration and partnerships with communities are essential to bringing parks to life. -Dignity, care, and respect for everyone is intentional and central to all work at Fairmount Park Conservancy.
