Announcing the Newly Accredited
and Reaccredited CAPRA Agencies

N

RPA and the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA) are proud to announce the accreditation of nine agencies and reaccreditation of 30 agencies. This
distinguished accomplishment was awarded during the 2019 NRPA Annual Conference in Baltimore, Maryland. CAPRA accreditation is the only
national accreditation for park and recreation agencies and is a measure
of an agency's overall quality of operation, management and service to
the community. This mark of distinction indicates that an agency has met
rigorous standards related to the management and administration of lands,
facilities, resources, programs, safety and services. Congratulations to the
following agencies:
