National parks are designed for people to enjoy the park features and provide opportunities for people and wildlife to mix.
Wildlife sanctuaries are designed to protect animals from people, and they often designed to keep people away from the animals so the wildlife is not disturbed.

The difference between a national park and a sanctuary is that no human activity is allowed inside a national park, while limited activities are permitted within the sancturary. Moreover, national parks receive more financial support from the Central government. national park is managed for ecosystem protection and recreation

Well first off not all National parks are created for the protection of wildlife. Some are historical monuments such as Mt. Rushmore etc. And it is run at the Federal level. Wildlife refuges can be at national or state levels and are for that purpose.
