SUMMARY:CCCN Fall Learning Series: Measuring Systems Change for Children's Equitable Access to Nature [RESCHEDULED]
DESCRIPTION:If you registered for the original webinar on Nov. 3\, you do not need to register again. Please check your email as we sent out an email with the login link and information. Email info@childrenandnature.org for any questions. \n\nJoin us to learn how to measure progress in changing the conditions that keep cities from providing equitable access to nature for children. \nThis third and final session in the three-part series continues to explore the ways cities and community leaders can change long-standing conditions of inequity to achieve more equitable access to nature for all children. Building on content from the first two sessions\, participants will increase fluency and understanding of the systems change framework. They will also explore how to measure progress towards more equitable access to nature. The session will introduce CCCN measurement tools that participants can use to keep track of progress and next steps towards change. \nThe session will be co-facilitated by Cities Connecting Children to Nature (CCCN)\, a national partnership of NLC and C&NN\, Success Measures\, a CCCN partner focused on measurement\, and the National Recreation and Parks Association\, a partner of this learning series. Panelists will include representatives from CCCN cities sharing experiences utilizing the measurement tools. \nObjectives:  \n\nBuild fluency and grasp of 6 conditions of systems change [continued]\nIdentify methods for measuring progress in changing systems conditions that lead to increasing equitable access to nature \nExplore tools for measuring and implementing best practices that enhances children’s equitable access to nature \n\nAbout the series: \nWe know that nature makes kids healthier\, happier and smarter. Unfortunately\, not all kids have the same access to nature and green spaces. Longstanding conditions\, such as policies\, power dynamics\, resource allocations and systemic racism create unequal access to nature’s benefits\, particularly for kids of color and from low-income communities. Achieving real and lasting change requires a community-based approach to dismantling systems of inequity\, or in other words\, a systems change approach.  \nThis series will dive into how cities and their local partners can use a systems change approach to connect children to nature more equitably. The 3-part series includes two informative webinars that serve as a foundation for understanding a systems change framework followed by an interactive workshop for participants to apply the insight gained. \nIf you did not register for the original webinar and would like to register\, please email info@childrenandnature.org. \n  \nPresented by: \n       \nIn partnership with:

SUMMARY:CCCN Fall Learning Series: Applying Systems Change for Children's Equitable Access to Nature in Your City
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this hands-on workshop to identify unique systems levers for cities to advance equitable access to nature for children. \nThis second session of a three-part series engages participants in applying a system change framework to their city or program. The session offers an opportunity to deepen understanding of the underlying conditions that often hinder change at a systems level. Participants will then workshop the tools and resources covered in the earlier sessions and apply them to their own work through smaller breakout sessions and work groups. \nIt is facilitated by experienced staff from  Cities Connecting Children to Nature (CCCN)\, a national partnership of NLC and C&NN\, Justice Outside\, a CCCN partner focused on advancing racial justice and equity in the outdoors\, and National Recreation and Parks Association\, a core partner of this learning series. \nRecommended prerequisite: Cities Embracing a Framework of Systems Change to Connect Children to Nature More Equitably Webinar \nAbout the series: \nWe know that nature makes kids healthier\, happier and smarter.

SUMMARY:CCCN Fall Learning Series: Cities Embracing a Framework of Systems Change to Connect Children to Nature More Equitably
DESCRIPTION:This webinar explores how long-standing systems of inequity contribute to inequitable access to nature for children of color in cities. \nThis is the first session in a 3-part series helping city and community leaders understand how to create citywide change towards equitable access to nature for all children. Participants will build a foundation for understanding how a systems approach can help cities and local partners achieve lasting change. They will explore the various levels at which change needs to take place with a keen eye on racial equity and how long-standing systems of inequity contribute to unequal access to nature for children. \nThe session brings together city perspectives aligned with experience from Cities Connecting Children to Nature (CCCN)\, a national partnership of NLC and C&NN\, Justice Outside\, a CCCN partner focused on advancing racial justice and equity in the outdoors\, and National Recreation and Parks Association\, a core partner of this learning series.  \nObjectives:  \n\nBuild fluency and understand  the conditions that make up the systems change framework\nShare successes and impacts from other cities in applying a systems change approach for equitable access to nature for children\nIdentify ways to leverage city plans or developing strategies for system change grounded in equity\nExplore local\, regional\, and state issues\, needs\, and examples for bringing about gradual changes in children’s equitable access to nature at the systems level\n\nAbout the series: \nWe know that nature makes kids healthier\, happier and smarter. Unfortunately\, not all kids have the same access to nature and green spaces. Longstanding conditions\, such as policies\, power dynamics\, resource allocations and systemic racism create unequal access to nature’s benefits\, particularly for kids of color and from low-income communities.

SUMMARY:Thriving Together: Bridging Differences to Build a Thriving Natural World for All
DESCRIPTION:Everyone deserves to live in a clean\, healthy environment—one that is free from hazards and emerging pathogens\, resilient to future changes\, and fulfills our need to connect with nature. Addressing climate change\, health inequities\, and disparities in access to nature will require transformational change in our policies and systems. We cannot have healthy people without healthy places\, and we cannot have healthy places without a thriving natural world. \nThriving Together: A Springboard for Equitable Recovery and Resilience in Communities Across America presents a unifying framework for action that 1) describes what it will take to transform our inequitable systems; 2) captures our shared values and commitment to equitable well-being; and 3) frames decisions within the context of a clear\, measurable goal: all people and places thriving\, no exceptions. \nThis interactive workshop will introduce the core components of the Thriving Together framework. Attendees will deepen their understanding of the framework through dialogue\, a practice that bridges difference and builds civic muscle. Attendees will leave the workshop with a set of tools and resources to begin to explore transformational change in their organizations\, communities\, or networks. \nExplore Thriving Together: A Springboard for Equitable Recovery and Resilience in Communities Across America: Read more \nCost: $45 general / $30 C&NN members (Not a member?
