About the project

Positioning green spaces as therapeutic resources in Black neighborhoods through land stewardship and nature-based mental health initiatives. DSM.215 became a Climate Resilience Partner with the city’s Office of Sustainability and helped establish a city-wide coalition of land stewards and environmental advocates. Stewardship is expanding into new partnerships, including Collective Climb and the Ancestree Project.
