    Our children are missing out on so much. Outdoor recreation spaces like playgrounds are among the last places where kids can just be kids. With proper precautions, these places can be safe. We urge the government to reconsider these closures

    Now is the time to pull out all stops to drive down coronavirus spread. But, we must not forget kids. Their learning, development and mental health are at risk. We are calling on to keep playgrounds and other outdoor rec spaces for families open with masking.
