Rx: Parks. Can the obesity risk for Las Cruces youth be lowered by encouraging outdoor physical activity at local parks? This was the question tackled by a team drawing from the Las Cruces Boys and Girls Club, the NMSU School of Nursing and the NM Community Data Collaborative. The young people mapped risk factors for obesity, mapped and evaluated Las Cruces Parks, and surveyed their peers. They put it all together in a "Story Map". Congratulations on a great team effort addressing an important community concern! For more information contact Richard Wright.
