The African American History and Engagement project is a five-year collaborative effort (2022-2027) with the California African American Museum to research and recover histories, and design and implement innovative and engaging interpretive exhibits, in approximately 24 State Parks. The project will also institutionalize restoration of neglected histories through interpreter training programs and archival practices. More information on the MOU and Interagency Agreement between CAAM and DPR that supports this collaboration can be found here.
