Reimagining Recreation & Parks as Integral to Your City

In the summer of 1968, American cities experienced riots and unrest sparked from centuries of racial discrimination. Akron, Ohio, was no different. In response, city of Akron leaders convened a task force to recommend pathways toward a more equitable community. Investment in recreation and parks were top priorities and municipal leaders at the time responded. It had been 40 years since the city last reviewed that plan, when Akron Mayor Dan Horrigan launched a plan to unify all municipal departments that impact development. Through that process, a reinvigorated Division of Recreation and Parks joined planning, engineering, development to form the Office of Integrated Development (OID). This session will guide participants through the community co-creation process used to create OID, and how Division of Recreation and Parks leads on development within the city.

Retail Buildings for Community Health, Wellness & Recreation

As the business model for retail continues to evolve away from brick-and-mortar stores, many communities are finding themselves faced with large, vacant big-box stores and mall properties.

In this session, we will explore the guiding principles for successful, adaptive reuse of these properties and case studies that demonstrate an emerging facility model that blends community recreation, clinical health, complementary retail and other creative community partnerships.

Suicide Talk: a Conversation to Create Awareness

Suicide is a community, health issue. Current statistic show that veterans, white men 65 and older, LGBTQ and teens as some of the highest risk groups. However, research also tells us that depression, one of the leading contributors to suicidal ideation, can be reduced with physical activity. Additionally, the ability to make connections with other people also reduces risk. Although suicide can be a very scary and difficult topic for many people to discuss, only an open and honest conversation about the issue of suicide helps remove the stigma and taboo. Every single person can participate in this type of conversation which helps to create a strong, positive community that encourages ´help-seeking’ behavior for people that might be at-risk.
