  • Outdoor Equity and Sustainability Events

    Outdoor Equity and Sustainability Walks Emphasizing Environment and Economic Justice. These monthly events took place from January to June. FCCAN started the year with anticipation on joy for everything that we create in the community to live out our goals of providing a space where everyone can access what they need to have a healthy and safe life. We offered each event with bilingual interpretation if needed. We are serving our Latine POC and prioritizing an intergenerational space where families can come together to enjoy the land. Their land. We hired one of the Natural Trail Leaders in March to help support our program. We wanted to make sure that each participant and Natural Trail Leaders felt supported from setting up the event, printing out fliers, social media posts, buying snacks, etc., and they have been a wonderful support. After each offering, we listened to participants and other Natural Trail Leaders to debrief to see what we could do better. After the hike, we were able to see those with disabilities were not able to attend due to climbing, so we are now adding an alternative outdoor activity near where the participants will start their hikes and then come together to close the event.
