Tricia Wiltshire, founder of LEO’s Haven at Chanticleer County Park, says children with disabilities are often unable to access traditional playgrounds, denying them a birthright of childhood: the ability to play with their friends and families. But Santa Cruz County is a community capable of rallying around a cause. She thinks that should be to create play spaces where everyone can belong – and she’s working to make that happen in Capitola, with Treasure Cove at Jade Street Park.
