ORGANIZATION PROFILE

The Canadian Parks and Recreation Association is a national voluntary-sector organization dedicated to realizing the full potential of parks and recreation services as a major contributor to community health and vibrancy.  Our members are parks and recreation professionals represented in over 2,600 communities in Canada.  We work closely with 13 provincial and territorial parks and recreation associations and collaborate with a host of other national organizations operating in the recreation, physical activity, environmental, facilities, sports, public health, crime prevention and social services arenas.

Over the course of its 60-year history, CPRA has become a credible and strong national leader in our sector.  In addition to our advocacy on the benefits of parks and recreation services, we provide our members with the information, resources and the professional development they can use to make a difference in their own community.  Through broad-based community involvement, we find solutions to social challenges, influence policy direction and generate momentum towards community quality of life.

CPRA is a registered charity.

A Proposal for a Restructured Parks and Recreation Field in Canada

After 10 months of work, countless conference calls, many individual and group consultations, and numerous drafts, the Partnership Agreement Renewal Task Group (PARTG) has produced this proposal for the consideration of the Partners. We look forward to discussing it with you and other CPRA members in Quebec City.
