The mission is clear: to work together across sectors such as recreation, education, sport and health to promote, implement, and evaluate programs, services, amenities and policies, which increase the physical literacy and physical activity levels in our communities.

Be Fit For Life Centres have supported the growth of PLAY groups in Alberta by taking on leadership roles in the formation of regional PLAY Groups. The power of our participation in the broader network is that we synthesize the experiences of agencies and organizations and curate best practices to be shared.

Advancing Physical Literacy in Alberta

In March of 2016, many partners invested in physical literacy development in Alberta met and outlined activation areas, priorities, next steps and commitments for the upcoming year. Awareness, resources & tools, education & training, meaningful measurement & research, systemic change, and collective leadership were all identified as activation areas. PLAY Groups continue to play an important role in awareness, communication and collaborative leadership. Click here to see the full summary poster.
