As the evidence for nature’s health benefits continues to grow, the opportunities and challenges that stand before the park prescription movement are coming into sharper focus. What patterns in the research are emerging? How can prescriptions be fulfilled in the under resourced communities where they would do the most good? How do we institutionalize “nature as medicine” within policy at the municipal, state and national levels? This episode features the Founder of Park Rx America, Dr. Robert Zarr; Dr. Kathleen Wolf, a Research Social Scientist at the University of Washington; and Atiya Wells, a nurse and the Founder of Bliss Meadows, in a discussion of the ways the movement can gain broader adoption around the country.
