Thoughts on NS’s Recreation Plan
» Don’t overstate your role in obesity epidemic» Physical Literacy / social marketing / public awareness» Focus on some obvious high need groups (CAS)» Community Spaces work – and they come with risk» Collaborating across sectors is a skill – not well understood» “Partnering” with school systems – real reciprocity » Inclusion of “all children” requires special skills / training» Be in the discussions early – input or criteria» Build your external support among (non vested) partners
