Mid-City CAN Youth Council Uses Data to Gain Support for a Skate Park

The Mid-City CAN Youth Council launches a Skate Park Campaign to break skating stereotypes and bring a safe space for youth to skate in City Heights. The youth combined their efforts with a Health Impact Assessment and use data to support their argument for a skate park.

The Power of Stories is an archive of projects submitted every year to Building Healthy Communities (BHC) Statewide Convening. It showcases work created throughout California highlighting the power of individual and collective efforts to promote health and demonstrates how stories have the power to re-imagine and transform our communities. Produced in partnership with the California Endowment.
