Caring for Georgia's People and Parks.
The Georgia Recreation and Park Association's mission includes, promoting healthy life styles through the utilization of park facilities and recreation services for the well being of each citizen individually and the community as a whole, insuring that park and recreation services are available, and providing organized, supervised activity as a means of prevention for a number of circumstances (disease, stress, etc.) including the prevention of juvenile delinquency. The Association membership is made up of public agencies, private businesses, educational institutions, clinical settings and citizen advocates whose primary responsibility is to provide recreation opportunities. These professionals look to the Association for support in obtaining funding, providing technical assistance and keeping recreation issues viable for public debate.
