Our
Work

The People’s Park Foundation was formed to elevate the voices of the community who deserve and have been demanding the cleanup of toxic chromium contamination in Liberty State Park along with a balance of uses of the park’s 1,200 acres. We’ve listened to the needs of coaches, community leaders and others who believe Liberty State Park can have active recreation, arts and culture along with passive recreation.
