Are you ready to be a rock star?
The International Play Association (IPA) has members in nearly 50 countries and has been
working for more than 50 years to secure every child’s right to play and to promote healthy,
high quality play opportunities and environments.
Every three years, IPA/USA hosts a national conference and in 2022 it will be in San Antonio,
Texas. This four-day conference will focus on advocating for the need to play, play equity, nature play, and the importance of play as a restorative practice following traumatic events. With your support, we will ensure our participants leave with action steps to advocate for play, address play equity, design remarkable outdoor play environments, and revive their inner child through restorative and playful field trips.
With members who are early childhood specialists, researchers, playground designers and
manufacturers, landscape architects, play leaders, child care workers, elementary school
administrators, classroom teachers and parents, leisure and recreation professionals, movement
specialists, and physical educators; your support would be recognized and valued by a variety of
professions all over the world.
