Recognition for Play Marin usually comes from the kids, parents, and coaches through their sports outreach. But recently Play Marin received Congressional recognition and was featured by CBS.
We’re thrilled to share their success with you!
Congressional Recognition
On MLK Jr Day, Paul Austin, CEO and Founder of Play Marin, and his wife, Tenisha Tate-Austin, CEO and Founder of Critical Friends, were recognized with a “Beyond the Call of Duty” MLK Community Service Certificate of Congressional Recognition.
Both Paul and Tenisha work tirelessly to ensure diversity and equity in the community in our schools, with housing practices, and access to sports and activities for our children.
