RC Strategies Inc. (operating as RC Strategies) is one of a few professional consulting practices in Canada that specializes entirely in recreation, parks, trails and culture planning and policy development. The firm maintains 12 full time employees and contractors located in B.C., Alberta and Ontario and has a professional presence in 8 provinces and territories. RC Strategies has provided consulting services to our municipal, regional, provincial, federal government and non-profit clients in the community services space ever since. In May of 2016, RC Strategies merged with Professional Environmental Recreation Consultants (PERC), which brought together two of Canada’s most respected and longstanding recreation and parks planning companies. Collectively, both firms have completed over 2,000 recreation, parks, trails, social and culture related planning projects.Our mission is “to enrich communities by helping stakeholders make better decisions that adapt to evolving needs and build capacity”. We accomplish this through a set of values and a steadfast commitment to our clients and to the broader recreation and culture sector that is passionate, inclusive, and aware of the times in which we live. We are currently intrigued by the role of recreation and culture services in addressing systemic racism and discrimination, furthering reconciliation, contributing to enhanced overall public health and mitigating climate change and continue to demonstrate leadership in our professional and volunteer work in the sector regarding these and other significant issues facing society today.The experience of the RC Strategies team is both diverse and extensive. Although our primary clientele are Canadian municipalities, we also work for other levels of government and the non-profit and private sectors. Our skillsets include facilitation, research and writing, public and community engagement, GIS analysis, graphic design and overall project management.
