Something as simple as making

So finding either marketing strategies/ campaigns that lead to an accessible platform for folks to engage, would go a long way. (ex. promoting at Dr. offices, local newspapers, schools). I also feel that getting input from local physicians could be beneficial. Creating wellness groups in communities, complete with goal setting activities, accountability partners, and resources to meet goals would be good. ]]> 2016-09-12 16:49:18 UTC https://padlet.com/samcottonmssw/ki18j39n8asc/wish/123213127
