The Neighborhood Parks Council provides a citywide forum for advocates for parks and recreation centers in San Francisco. The council connects with existing park groups and helps new groups get started. Over the past six years, the council has grown to more than 120 neighborhood parks groups, and new groups are added every month. The following is a list of neighborhood park groups. If you would like to join a group or start a new one, feel free to call the Neighborhood Parks Council at (415) 621-3260 or visit their site for a complete list of contacts. View other features...
