As the steward of nearly half a million acres of public lands, including forests, beaches, ponds, parks, reservations, rivers, golf courses, skating rinks, pools, and more—the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) is committed to ensuring that all of our properties are safe, welcoming, and accessible to every resident and visitor of Massachusetts, regardless of race, language, or income. Through the agency’s Environmental Justice Strategy, DCR is working to remove barriers to outdoor recreation, expand language access, improve public engagement, and ensure that historically underserved communities can fully benefit from the natural and recreational resources we manage.
