Commitment 2

Designing an annual action plan for play. Some of the work in creating a Playful City USA is hands-on — participating in a build, recruiting volunteers to care for a playspace over time, drafting a city ordinance on play, organizing neighborhood watches and meeting with parks and recreation officials to address problems before they start. Other work includes advocating for a city ordinance, new policies and legislation by working with mayors, city councilors and other policymakers. In creating an action plan, you develop a road map for negotiating these activities. In addition, an action plan provides focus and points of accountability, as well as offering a tool for measuring success.
