| Popis: | In April 2008, several federal and nonprofit agencies organized an informational Web-based meeting titled “Reconnecting Kids With Nature for Health Benefits.” This online meeting was convened by the Society for Public Health Education and delivered to public health educators, health professionals, environmental educators, and land conservationists to raise awareness of national efforts to promote children’s involvement in outdoor recreation. This article describes eight programs discussed at this meeting. For public health professionals, partnership with land-management agencies conducting such programs may be an effective way to increase physical activity levels among children. |
