    Creating a Physical Activity Network: Implementing Asset Based Community Development
    (2020-06-25) Schlegel, Whitney; Johnston, Jeanne; Rogan, Jane; Pope, Katherine; Burkhardt, Todd
    Using the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) model in a local rural county to discover assets, IU Bloomington faculty and staff share how they partnered with communities to use those assets to collaboratively design a community physical activity network in order to increase education and physical activity (based on feedback from a recent community health needs assessment survey), to help reduce lifestyle diseases such as hypertension and obesity, as well as improve mental health during the pandemic. This presentation was originally shared at the Global Asset & Strengths Based Practitioners' 2020 (un)Conference.
