Access to the outdoors is a basic human right — yet many young people, particularly in rural, Indigenous, and historically underserved communities, face significant barriers to experiencing the physical, mental, and social benefits of connecting with New Mexico’s great outdoors.
The first-of-its-kind Outdoor Equity Fund, established in 2019, aims to break down these barriers and ensure equitable access to the outdoors for all youth in New Mexico. This grant supports transformative outdoor experiences that foster stewardship and respect for New Mexico’s lands, waters, and cultural heritage while connecting youth to career pathways in the outdoors.
Since being established, the Outdoor Recreation Division has awarded over $10. 5 million, enabling more than 128,000 youth across 23 counties to participate in educational outdoor experiences that nurture health and well-being and build a lifelong connection to the outdoors. These programs inspire and shape the next generation of land stewards, conservationists, and outdoor leaders.
A new Tier 2 funding category has been announced for FY 27, offering grants from $41,001–$100,000 for high-impact youth outdoor programs. Read the Grant Guide for requirements and details.
