Unfortunately, the 25th Council District has the least number of parks and playgrounds per person in all of Queens*, which leaves them overcrowded and poorly maintained.

In the recent primary election NYLCVEF partnered with the Jackson Heights Beautification Group to raise this issue in the 2009 primary election for New York City Council.

Our program will continue in the general election as we seek to educate voters about the role their next Council Member could play in solving the 25th District's parks problem and engage them to vote for the candidate they feel has the best plan.

We encourage everyone to stay active advocating for more parks in the District. Here's what you can do:
