Prescribing Parks and Nature for Better Health

Arts on a Roll! Details on page 4.

For Better Health, Go Outside and Play!! MOM WAS RIGHT! GOING OUTSIDE IS GOOD FOR YOU. Research has confirmed that spending time in nature and parks helps prevent and treat anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, diabetes, and other chronic diseases. Studies have shown that: •

Time in the park and natural areas reduces the risk of being overweight and obese.

•

Viewing and spending time in green space such as parks and nature, lowers cortisol levels and blood pressure.

•

Living in or near green space reduces mortality.

•

Spending time in nature is linked to decreased anxiety.

•

Living in a neighborhood with more opportunities for physical activity is associated with lower risks for type 2 diabetes.

•

Walking in parks improves focus for children with attention deficits.

The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, Department of Parks and Recreation in Prince George’s County (a nationally respected leader in our field for our top-quality services) is now collaborating with Park Rx and local healthcare providers in the Park Rx initiative, connecting providers and patients with our parks and services. The initiative aims to: •

Help healthcare professionals prescribe nature to patients during routine delivery of health care.

•

Change patient behavior through increased time spent outdoors, subsequently preventing or reducing the effects of chronic disease.

•

Create the next generation of environmental and park stewards through outdoor exploration and experience.

After the priority registration period, registrations are accepted from residents of all jurisdictions. The fee schedule applies to all Commission programs and facilities in Prince George’s County, with a few exceptions such as performance tickets and historic site admission fees. *NOTE: Full payment is due at registration unless a class or program has a scheduled payment structure i.e. Kids’ Care, Trips & Excursions. Need help? Email the Customer Service Help Desk at CustomerService@pgparks.com.

things to do Memory Training: Adults

Spanish: Adults, Intermediate

Photography: Nature

Memory training focuses on the four most common everyday memory complaints: forgetting names and faces, forgetting to perform intended tasks, forgetting where things were placed, and an inability to quickly recall information. Participants will be taught how to develop good memory habits as well as techniques to improve memory.

Building on the beginners course, this level continues the language learning to help students move closer to achieving their conversational goals. Empower yourself to speak conversationally to neighbors, develop a useful work skill, and start the process of becoming fluent. As an added benefit, physiological studies show that people who speak more than one language have better brains! Some of those benefits include better problem solving and negotiating skills. Take this course and get all the benefits of learning the beautiful language of Spanish!

Start with a brief slide-illustration introduction showing examples of local nature photography. Then trek through nearby Natural Area in search of photo shooting examples. Beginners and intermediate photographers welcome. Bring your own camera.

Take a virtual tour through the Prince George’s County Planning Department. See what we can do for YOU!

Community Planning

Having healthy communities is incredibly important, and something we do not take lightly here at the Prince George’s Planning County Department; so much so that we have an entire division focused on our community. The Community Planning Division not only facilitates the initial design phases of Prince George’s County communities, but also meets with community stakeholders in the effort of implementing sector and master plans. This offshoot of the Planning Department often works as a liaison between local organizations for moving forward in focused planning studies, urban design services, interagency coordination, stakeholder facilitation, technical planning assistance, grant assistance, and community and municipal capacity-building.

Countywide Planning

While each community is different within Prince George’s County, there are a variety of comprehensive strategies set in place to manage countywide entities such as plans for transportation, historic resources, green infrastructure planning and preservation, parks and recreation, trails, schools, public safety, and water resources. The Countywide Planning Division specializes in creating and preserving healthy communities for you and your family on a macro level. Whether its new park infrastructure or water stream restoration efforts, the Countywide Planning Division exists to serve you.

Development Review

Want to know what new developments are coming to Prince George’s County? The Planning Department has an entire division dedicated to the process of how new residential, commercial, and industrial developers find their home in Prince George’s County. Modern, chic-styled high rise apartment complexes, plaza-filled galleria malls, and high-end organic grocery stores are just a few examples of developments that must pass our development review process to ensure that County residents receive the very best enhancements to infrastructure, design, environment, and quality of life.

Information Management

Want to learn more about development in your neighborhood? Or maybe you are looking for digital maps of your community? Our Information Management Division offers several web-based tools that are great resources and provide a considerable amount of information. For example, PGAtlas, a widely used mapping tool, offers a wealth of information. By accessing the mapping tool, you may find parcel boundaries, zoning, overlay zones, development activities, tax assessment, tree conservation plans, floodplains, municipality and political boundaries, and current and historic aerial photography. Want to know about development in your community? Try our Development Activity Monitoring System, better known as (DAMS). This system will allow you to check the status of development in the County. It contains applications accepted by the Development Review Division from January 1, 2000 to present, and may include some older cases.

Take Action and Get Involved

Take a moment and reflect on what YOU want your community to look like in 5, 10, or even 20 years. Want to get involved? Visit our website, www.pgplanning.org to see what is new in your neighborhood and learn how you can become engaged in shaping the future of Prince George’s County. pgparks.com • 69
