SUMMARY:Engaging Institutional Leadership for Nature-Based Strategies (Recording)
DESCRIPTION:Civic and institutional leaders can play a critical role in expanding access to nature for all children by serving as champions and sponsors of a community’s vision and goals. Engaging these leaders alongside community members can create powerful institutional backing for your project. \nDr. Shirley Green\, Commissioner at the City of Rochester Department of Recreation and Human Services\, will share insights on the importance of building partnerships with local leaders. This session will explore practical strategies for securing leadership buy-in\, whether you’re seeking a pledge of support\, advancing policy actions or strengthening coalition partnerships. Bring your questions for real-time problem-solving as we discuss how leadership engagement can help advance your nature-based goals and how you can gain local and national recognition for your community’s efforts. \nThe session highlights the Coalition Builder and Children and Nature Connector actions as part of the Nature Everywhere Communities Action Challenge. Learn more about the Action Challenge\, how to register and how to receive recognition for your efforts to increase access to nature at www.childrenandnature.org/nature-everywhere-action-challenge. \nWho should attend? Anyone looking to increase children’s access to nature in their community or looking for opportunities to receive recognition for their efforts on a national scale.  \nBrought to you by Nature Everywhere Communities\, an initiative of The Children & Nature Network\, National League of Cities and KABOOM!. \nIf you can’t join us live\, register for the event and a recording will be shared over email.  \nIn partnership with:
