Journal of Park and Recreation Admin.

The Journal of Park and Recreation Administration is the official publication of the American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration, published in coordination with Sagamore Publishing. JPRA was established by AAPRA to bridge the gap between research and practice for administrators, educators, consultants, and researchers. As such, it provides a forum for the analysis of management and organization of the delivery of park, recreation, and leisure services. JPRA publishes distinguished original manuscripts that:
  • move theoretical management concepts forward in the field of park and recreation administration and
  • provide clear implications of theory and research for problem solving and action in park and recreation organizations.
