2015 Renown Health Annual Report | Page 44

WELLNESS FOR ALL We support events and initiatives that further health and wellness throughout our region. Community events focused on healthy activities and well-being boost our mission of inspiring health. These are just a few of our partners in community wellness: RENOPEN STREETS RenOpen, the Reno arm of Open Streets, is part of the Cyclovia movement that is spreading across the globe. RenOpen Streets increases the health and physical activity of Reno residents by transforming streets in a designated area, giving that space to residents to celebrate, walk, bike, dance and play in their neighborhood. GIRLS ON THE RUN 42 This national, nonprofit organization is inspiring girls to be joyful, healthy and confident by engaging them in running. The sport is used to inspire and motivate girls and encourage lifelong health and fitness. More than a million girls nationally have been touched by Girls on the Run. URBAN ROOTS Urban Roots seeks to educate individuals and groups about the path of food from seed to table. The organization is part of a larger movement in northern Nevada that promotes healthy minds, bodies, communities and the importance of consuming whole foods grown locally. IN ADDITION TO COMMUNITY WELLNESS, WE ARE THINKING ABOUT THE HEALTH OF OUR PLANET, TOO!
