Summary: PaRx is an initiative of the BC Parks Foundation, driven by health-care professionals who want to improve their patients' health by connecting them to nature. Featuring practical resources like quick tips and patient handouts, its goal is to make prescribing time in nature simple, fun and effective.

Parks Prescriptions began as a grassroots movement in the United States over a decade ago, and have now spread to countries around the world. PaRx is proud to be Canada's first national, evidence-based nature prescription program.
