City of Providence’s Recreation Department Mission Statement

The City of Providence’s Recreation Department will coordinate a recreation system in which all residents have access to fully programmed, fully operational, and well-maintained facilities and programs that meet both current and future recreation needs. The city of Providence’s Recreation Department will provide a network of neighborhood-based recreation spaces where all residents particularly children and youth, are engaged, healthy and feel safe. We will achieve this mission through robust neighborhood engagement and city-wide support for recreation programming and infrastructure that is as special and unique as the kids, adults, and staff who use them.
