Why did Danville Virginia earn a ‘Nature Everywhere’ Status? Danville, Virginia earned the ‘Nature Everywhere’ designation due to its commitment to ensuring equitable access to nature for all residents, especially children. 

This recognition is part of the Nature Everywhere Community Action Challenge, a collaborative initiative by the Children & Nature Network, the National League of Cities, and KABOOM!. The program focuses on creating opportunities for children to connect with nature where they live, learn, and play. 

Danville’s Danville Outdoors initiative is key to this achievement. This initiative, a partnership between Danville Parks and Recreation and seven other local organizations, focuses on: 

• Educating children about nature through hands-on experiences.
• Providing access to local parks and green spaces, including the Dan River and Anglers Park with its extensive trail system.
• Emphasizing the benefits of outdoor learning and play for children’s health, well-being, and development. 

By becoming a ‘Nature Everywhere’ Community, Danville aims to further expand its outdoor initiatives by:

1. Potentially earning other designations, such as Bee City, to support sustainability efforts. 
2. Applying for grants to support these programs.
3. Increasing involvement with local schools.
4. Expanding access to underserved areas.
