Help shape the Physical Activity Policy Research and Evaluation Network!
by Goins, Karin Valentine
Dear colleagues,
The Physical Activity Policy Research and Evaluation Network (PAPREN) wants to hear from you!
PAPREN is the newest generation of a research network supported by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) since 2004. PAPREN remains committed to serving as a hub for physical activity policy research. New developments include emphasis on the built environment, multi-sector collaboration, and moving research into practice. Stephenie Lemon, PhD, of the University of Massachusetts Medical School and Jamie Chriqui, PhD, of the University of Illinois at Chicago are the PAPREN principal investigators.
We're working on initial steps like building our website and have launched a short survey to help inform Network development. You can access the survey via this link:
Please provide your input into the new PAPREN!<https://arcsapps.umassmed.edu/redcap/surveys/?s=H8MW3CTLLD>

We encourage you to share this message with colleagues you think may be interested. If you'll be at the 2020 Active Living Conference in Orlando next week, join us Monday February 3 7:15-8:45am for an informal breakfast meeting in the Tangerine Room. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or to be added to our email distribution list.
Thanks!
Karin
