Washington, DC—As First Lady Michelle Obama unveiled the Let’s Move OUTSIDE initiative today in Las Vegas, expanding her campaign to solve childhood obesity, a broad coalition representing the business and non-profit communities announced a national strategic partnership called the Outdoors Alliance for Kids (OAK). OAK brings together the YMCA of the USA, REI, Sierra Club, National Wildlife Federation, Izaak Walton League of America, The Outdoor Foundation, National Recreation and Park Association and the Children & Nature Network, collectively representing over 30 million members, to address the growing divide between children and families and the natural world.
Dear NCCAN! Conference participants and supporters of getting children outside in NC!
I wanted to give you all the opportunity to get your information as a supporter listed on the NC Children’s Outdoor Bill of Rights website before we “go live.” We’re still fixing details and getting it all ready for release this week, but we’d love to list you as an individual or organizational supporter.
