National Parks for America's Children Act

This bill directs the Department of the Interior, through the National Park Service, to create a program that helps to ensure that youths from urban areas have access to the National Parks.

• partnerships with urban schools to teach basic outdoor skills and basic nature and biology, and
• a grant program that helps to ensure that urban youths can afford attendance and lodging fees at the National Parks.
