Reconnect Outdoors is a bilingual environmental education program that connects Latino and Spanish-speaking families in East San José to nature through guided hikes and interactive community gatherings. Founded in 2022 with seed funding from Justice Outside and now fiscally sponsored by Local Color, the program removes barriers to park access by offering free transportation, healthy meals and culturally relevant, bilingual programming. By promoting physical activity, community connection and environmental learning, Reconnect Outdoors addresses health inequities and fosters environmental stewardship in neighborhoods most impacted by pollution, linguistic isolation and limited green space. Through shared experiences in local parks, families build a lasting sense of belonging, wellness and care for the land.
