Poster Abstract
The content presented in this poster is associated with two projects that focus on the intersection of restorative park design and the emotional and mental wellbeing of park users within the context of the City of Camden, NJ, a community that has faced environmental injustices for many decades. Both projects are initiated by the Rowan University Community Planning + Visualization Lab, with one funded by NASA and the other by the Rowan University Catalyst Grant program. Collaborators include Rowan students, faculty, as well as researchers from external entities, both national and international. Additionally, the Rowan University Planning Studio 2023 participated in these projects to some extent, and the studio report was awarded the Outstanding Student Project Award 2023 by the American Planning Association NJ Chapter. The content on this poster showcases a few aspects of the broader projects.
