The Visitacion Valley Greenway Project was created to provide:
- Education of local school children, youth and the community about natural sciences, nutrition, and horticulture, environmental issues and advocacy.
- Open space for recreational activities.
- Pedestrian pathways linking the neighborhood.
- Greening, beautification and revitalization of the entire neighborhood.
All of which have led to a sense of community and empowerment among the community's culturally diverse residents and given opportunities for personal growth and a healthier environment.
