## Description

PaRx, an initiative by the BC Parks Foundation, is Canada’s pioneering evidence-based nature prescription program aimed at enhancing health through nature. Founded by health-care professionals, PaRx encourages healthcare providers to prescribe outdoor activities to improve their patients' well-being. The program offers practical resources, including patient handouts and quick tips, making it simple for prescribers to log nature prescriptions and access special offers that reduce barriers to nature across Canada.

With over 13,000 healthcare providers registered, PaRx connects patients of all ages to nature, helping adults and kids alike reap the numerous benefits of the outdoors. From urban parks to wilderness areas, PaRx collaborates with various organizations to provide free admissions, discounts, and unique nature experiences for participants. The program is directed by Dr. Melissa Lem, a leader in nature and health, supported by a dedicated team passionate about empowering communities to connect with the natural world. PaRx is not just a health initiative; it’s a movement towards a healthier, nature-connected society.
