“Many participants report feeling calmer, more relaxed, and less isolated after these trips. The outings encourage social interaction, physical activity, and a sense of community—All of which support their mental health and overall
well-being.” Monique Jackson, Program Director, Pathways.

The requests for our services keep coming- now servicing 16 partner organizations, representing over 450 clients!
Now creating new partnerships with prestigious local organizations:
The Wolf Conservation Center
Westchester Land Trust
Ward Pound Ridge Reservation
Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts
We are delighted to help support their efforts to achieve greater diversity and accessibility!
BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS:
The Access Nature Project is breaking down barriers (both physical and socioeconomic) that keep people from experiencing nature and accessing its many benefits.

Transportation to parks and preserves is one of our major barriers for some of our partner groups. We provide transportation, but our costs have doubled this year!
Our challenge is meeting the enormous need for these programs!
Access Nature Project brings the healing benefits of nature to the underserved, primarily people with disabilities and families of limited means. Our ultimate goal is self-sufficiency, creating LIFETIME TOOLS OF WELL-BEING for our clients!
All our programs are 100% FREE to the people we serve!!
