Today we are spotlighting social prescribing! Social prescribing is a tool that unites social and medical models of health and wellness. They are co-designed with clients, based on their unique interests, goals, and gifts to improve their health by developing new skills, participating in meaningful activities, and becoming more connected to their communities!
