The latest issue of Outside Magazine leads with breaking news: Science’s New Miracle Drug is Free! The cover leads you inside to the article by Aaron Reuben a clinical psychologist. Reuben interviewed two of our participating Parkscriptions Providers at Family Care Network- Dr. Chao-ying Wu and Dr. Greg Anderson for the story The Nature Cure: Inside the Health Revolution that Could Change Your Life. Dr. Anderson is quoted at the end of the article for what he tells his patients, “We don’t see a lot of ads for parks on TV, but if you put the power of nature in a pill, it would be a billion dollar drug.”
Also referenced in the article is Marc Berejka from REI talking about their $1 million dollar pledge to launch Nature for Health at the University of Washington, “We are trying to catalyze this movement”.

Todd Elsworth is one of the many “Mossy-haired lunatics roaming the dripping peninsulas”, described in “I’m Here for the Weather” by Tom Robbins. As executive director, he works to fulfill our mission to teach the health benefits of nature, promote outdoor recreation, and steward the places where we play.
