We All Belong Outside.

We come from these communities, we know what is at stake.

The Outdoor F.U.T.U.R.E. is a coalition composed of racially, ethnically, and geographically diverse leaders who have come together to create outdoor opportunities and solutions to the nature gap. We are working to ensure that nature’s transformational powers are accessible to all of our nation’s youth. We believe that outdoor equity efforts are best led by the people with lived experiences in all communities across the country. On the heels of two major successful outdoor equity grant programs created in New Mexico and California, the organizations that launched these efforts alongside like-minded partners, have come together to create and introduce the Outdoor F.U.T.U.R.E Initiative.

Who We Are…

The Outdoor FUTURE coalition seeks to build public and political momentum for the creation of a National Outdoor Opportunity Fund that will enable large-scale and long-term investments in programs to ensure that all youth across the nation, regardless of their income or zip code, have an opportunity to explore the great outdoors and to enjoy its health, educational, and career-building benefits.
