PlayStreets Chicago is a collaborative, community-led initiative designed to foster healthier, stronger communities. The initiative creates safe and accessible neighborhood spaces for health and wellness activities, recreation, creativity, learning, social connection, and access to community resources.

Miguel Lopez (Public Health Administrator at CDPH and PlayStreets Lead) is joined by Lisa Butler (Program Director for Phalanx Family Services for PlayStreets in the far south region) and Felicia Walker (Founder and Executive Director of City Motivators) to discuss PlayStreets in 2026, what drives their work in the communities, and how Chicagoans can get involved.
