Excited to Continue as Community Coordinator for the Access Nature Project!
🌿 Access Nature Project: Expanding Access, Empowering Connection
Our mission remains rooted in one powerful belief: nature should be accessible to everyone.
The Access Nature Project (ANP) is dedicated to opening the outdoors to underserved communities—empowering individuals with the skills, confidence, and resources to enjoy nature independently and sustainably. We see each outing as an opportunity to build self-sufficiency, wellness, and a lifelong connection to the natural world.
Now in our third season, we’re more committed than ever to growing our reach through innovative programs, strong partnerships, and inclusive experiences. Together, we’re working to ensure that nature is not a privilege, but a shared right.
🌱 Join us in a year of connection, growth, and discovery. Nature is for everyone—let’s make sure it stays that way.
