“America’s outdoor recreation sector is already a major national asset, generating more than $1.3 trillion in economic output ... Investing in outdoor access is not simply about recreation. It is about healthier communities, stronger local economies and a more resilient society.”

[Outdoor Recreation Roundtable @ORRoundtable]

In a new op-ed published in USA TODAY, ORR President Jessica (Wahl) Turner writes about one of the most scalable, cost-effective, and underappreciated health interventions in America: the outdoors. https://t.co/jK6RwbDtT6
