Grant Overview

Delaware's low-income families face significant barriers to accessing green spaces, with many communities lacking safe and affordable recreational facilities. This funding opportunity is designed to support the development of new public parks in Wilmington's low-income neighborhoods, with a focus on providing affordable recreational facilities and promoting community bonding. Eligible organizations must demonstrate their ability to engage with local communities and leverage Delaware's existing infrastructure for park management. Unlike neighboring states, Delaware requires that park development projects prioritize equity and inclusion, with a focus on serving low-income and minority communities. Delaware's Access to Green Spaces initiative will focus on developing new public parks that feature affordable recreational facilities, such as playgrounds and sports fields. The state's urban areas, including Wilmington, where population density is highest, will be prioritized for this initiative. By developing new public parks, Delaware can promote physical activity and community bonding among low-income families and support their overall health. Key regions for this initiative include Wilmington's low-income neighborhoods, where access to green spaces is limited, and the state's rural areas, where park facilities may be scarce. Delaware's infrastructure, including its network of roads and public transportation, will be leveraged to support park development. The state's demographic characteristics, including a high proportion of low-income residents, underscore the importance of this initiative. Capacity Building in Delaware's Park Development Delaware's park development efforts are constrained by limited capacity, including workforce expertise and funding. This funding opportunity aims to address these capacity gaps by supporting projects that bring together diverse stakeholders, including local communities, government agencies, and non-profit organizations. By doing so, Delaware can build on its existing efforts to develop new public parks and promote access to green spaces for low-income families. What Capacity is Required in Delaware? Applicants must demonstrate their ability to engage with local communities and leverage Delaware's existing infrastructure for park management. They must also demonstrate their capacity to develop and maintain new public parks, including their ability to secure funding and manage projects effectively.
