In September 2022, Gwinnett County joined the ranks of elite park and recreation agencies across the country by earning accreditation through the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA) and the National Recreation and Park Association. 

CAPRA measures an agency’s overall quality of operation, management, and service to the community.
The accreditation indicates an agency has met rigorous standards related to the management and administration of lands, facilities, resources, programs, safety, and services. 

As part of the accreditation process, Gwinnett Parks and Recreation demonstrated compliance with more than 150 recognized standards and documented all policies and procedures. For more information about CAPRA accreditation, visit NRPA.org/CAPRA.
