Abstract Summary
This proposal aims to evaluate the implementation of a newly developed Aboriginal supplement to the Everybody gets to play Community Mobilization Tool Kit, a resource developed by the Canadian Parks and Recreation Association to assist recreation practitioners in mobilizing community partners to enhance access to recreation opportunities for children and youth living in low-income families. The proposed evaluation has the potential to create evidence about the conditions and events that facilitate and/or constrain the uptake of this supplement in Aboriginal communities. New knowledge yielded by this research will provide insight into promising practices for engaging Aboriginal communities in physical activity and recreation opportunities to enhance healthy lifestyles and chronic disease prevention.
