This image contains a quote from The City from the article "Park Lovers Urge Mayor to Restore Funding as Staffing Fails" written by Katie Honan. The quote is as follows: "NYC Parks was the only city agency to face a significant budget reduction this year," the letter shared with THE CITY reads. "Budget cuts have resulted in the loss of nearly 800 staffing lines and canceled essential programs, compounding decades of chronic underfunding and leaving the agency at a breaking point." end quote. Under the quote is an image of dark skinned youth playing basketball.

Right now, we have a chance to recover agency staffing & resources.
