The Play Across Boston research team welcomes other cities
and towns to look at recreational programs and facilities for
its young people. We plan to re-collect data in the Boston
area over the next few years (2005-2009) with these same
survey questions.
If you and/or your organization plan to use these data
sources in the Boston area, permission must be received
