This #EarthDay, we’re spotlighting how community health and environmental wellbeing go hand in hand. 🤝 From nature prescribing to other green social interventions, connecting people with the natural world isn’t just good for the planet—it also supports mental health, social connection, and resilience. We teamed up with @cascades_en to create Social and Nature Prescribing: Considerations for Health and Environment, a resource exploring how social prescribing can help build healthier people and a healthier planet. Access the playbook ➡️cascadescanada.ca/resources/… Let’s keep nurturing communities where both people and nature thrive. #SocialPrescribing #NaturePrescribing
