The Results

Municipal recreation providers, and their partners, were invited to get involved by (1) reviewing and providing feedback on resources developed by Health Canada to support healthy eating; (2) sharing stories about how their recreation centre and/or facilities are creating healthy food environments; and (3) participating in three online learning sessions.

Healthy Eating Resources

In the next several months, we will be adding the updated resources to the CPRA website. We invite you to use them to create your own culture of change related to healthy eating environments.

Healthy Eating Stories

Learning from others is a great way to start and/or build your own healthy eating initiative. Three case studies outline the journey to provide healthier food choices including the successes, challenges, and the motivation to keep planning.

We have created a short inventory of five initiatives that support healthy eating in the recreation sector as well as a number of resources that you can reference or re-create in your own community.

Online Learning Sessions

If you weren’t able to make it to our online learning sessions, you still have a chance to learn from experts and your colleagues about what it means to provide a healthy eating environment, the role of the recreation sector, and the resources available to support your work. Watch the presentations below and share them with your colleagues and partners to start your own initiative or get inspired with more ideas.
