We are working, in a rare and deep partnership, alongside community residents to transform Elm Playlot, a small (½ acre), little-used, city park that lies in the middle of Richmond’s Iron Triangle neighborhood –– a once-proud, inner-city neighborhood that now suffers from deep poverty, violent crime, widespread blight, and a pervasive sense of hopelessness.

“This course is one step toward making community-centered, evidence-based urban gun violence prevention into a permanent fixture of the public health field."

~ Jason Corburn, Professor, Public Health/City and Regional Planning

The class, Urban Gun Violence Prevention: A Public Health Perspective, was BPH’s first course dedicated to addressing urban gun violence.

We had our first Throwback Skate Party at Elm Playlot. We built a 2,400 sq. ft. roller rink, by hand, for the community to skate. Our Throwback Skate Party was such a hit we decided to leave the skating rink up for the summer. Bring your family and your skates to Elm Playlot on Friday nights between 4pm - 7pm to skate. See you under the lights and disco ball!
