Coalition Objectives

Provide a collaborative approach to nature-based wellbeing throughout Kane County, by:
a. Collectively providing additional or more robust programs and experiences while sharing feedback (successes and areas of improvement); and
b. Identifying indicators to measure success of nature-based wellbeing programs.
Offer unified and supported staff training opportunities regarding nature-based wellbeing.
Engage with or further connect with residents and new audiences via nature-based wellbeing programs, specifically focusing on offering equitable, inclusive, and accessible programs.
Leverage joint promotional opportunities, including: somewhat unified messaging, cross-promoting programs, and/or offering experiences to residents provided by other entities (for those unable to offer robust nature-base welling programs themselves).
Form connections and facilitate conversations between open space and nature programming partners, healthcare providers, community-based organizations, and other wellness-focused organizations.
