The Inclusive Recreation Funding Program aims to advance Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (EDIA) in recreation programming and community settings by reducing barriers to participation and increasing opportunities for underrepresented groups. Funding may support initiatives that enhance access to recreation, embrace cultural diversity, and foster inclusive community engagement.
There are three funding streams available:
Upon conclusion of the event, a follow-up report must be completed no later than 30 days after the program/activity is completed. The final report must be completed for the organization/group to be considered for future funding. The final report should be submitted to the Recreation Specialist – Inclusion, Amanda Brinson at amandabrinson@recreationnl.com
Funding applications will open November 2nd 2026 and close January 15th 2027.
