Annie Friday is joined by Ashley Jefferson to talk about some of the disparities in who is playing outside despite knowing nature is essential to our mental and physical health. Ashley shares some of the programs she has developed to encourage Black families to get outside and enjoy the benefits of fresh air and nature. Ashley offers some reminders on heading out: simply by being human, we are nature; feeling safe and having fun are critical elements, and there’s no requirement to be a nature expert in order to enjoy the benefits of it.

Thanks for listening!
