    About Us

    For 40 years, Parks & Trails New York (PTNY) has been the state’s leading advocate for public lands, driving transformative change. Founded in 1985 by a group of passionate park advocates who believed New York’s magnificent state park system merited its own advocacy group, PTNY’s purview quickly grew to include trails, outdoor recreation, active transportation, and bicycle and pedestrian issues.

    Our organization is working to be an anti-racist, safe, and inclusive organization. BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, people of color) individuals, women, immigrants, people with disabilities, people of marginalized sexual orientations or gender identities, and people with low-income backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply. We also encourage individuals belonging to the above groups who meet some but not all of the position requirements to apply.
