For Community Organizations

Play Map LA is a live inventory of ages 0–6 events, places, and classes across Los Angeles — filtered for free outings, storytimes, this weekend, and neighborhoods. Nonprofits, libraries, Family Resource Centers, BIDs, and other community organizations use it as a parent resource so families get a current plan without staff rebuilding calendars every week.

Schools and preschools have a separate home at /for-schools. Providers and studios list at /for-providers. This page is for nonprofits, libraries, FRCs, BIDs, and community organizations that want to point families at trusted free and weekend resources.

What to share with families

• Free & low-cost — outings that fit community and family budgets.
• Storytimes — library and literacy programs across LA.
• This weekend with kids — dated weekend list parents can open on a phone.
• Parent tools — planners, checklists, and neighborhood helpers.
• Weekend embed & badge — compact widget at /embed/this-weekend plus newsletter badges (keep Powered by attribution).

How partnerships work

1. Add a link on your Family Resources, Online Resources, or newsletter (no scrape, no login).
2. Prefer deep links into hubs above so parents land on a useful list, not a marketing homepage.
3. Optional: embed the weekend widget from /tools/weekend-embed (iframe src = /embed/this-weekend, not a full hub page). Keep the Powered by Play Map LA line.
4. Corrections and community-program listings: contact us or submit.
