Outdoor Partners for Community Health & Wellness
July 21
Led by the Virginia Department of Health, this session will discuss the current opportunities and barriers of accessing outdoor space, including trails, parks, and greenways as a way to improve health and health equity. You’ll meet the Rockbridge Rangers, a junior ranger program designed to encourage learning and physical activity opportunities in Rockbridge County and represents the combined efforts of many local partners as part of both the Rockbridge Area Outdoor Partnership and Healthy Communities Action Team, including Natural Bridge State Park. The session will conclude with resources, action items, partnerships and connections you can use to move these important concepts forward in your own community.
