Why Playgrounds Are So Important, and Why You Should Avoid Them Now

Why Playgrounds Are So Important, and Why You Should Avoid Them Now

Playspaces are critically important to the health and wellness of kids, but everyone should heed the guidance of public health officials and the orders of state and local governments to stay off of public playgrounds to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus.

In a public health crisis, playing on a playground is problematic.

Even in Crisis, We Must Keep Listening to Youth

Even in Crisis, We Must Keep Listening to Youth

COVID-19 has layered new challenges on to youth already forced to navigate decades of structural disinvestment. We can’t wait to get back to working with youth to create places where they can once again be themselves among friends — especially in the places where this space doesn’t exist today.

KABOOM! is committed to a multi-sector approach that addresses these issues.

Our statement on Coronavirus

The health and safety of kids and their families, along with the entire KABOOM! community of staff and partners is our top priority. We uphold community as a core value and we are remaining vigilant in monitoring the latest COVID-19 safety guidelines from local, national and global health authorities.
