Cambridge Physical Activity Assessment
Overview
The Cambridge Public Health Department, in partnership with Metropolitan Area Planning Council, is conducting a physical activity assessment to better understand how Cambridge residents engage in physical activity, and identify ways to make it more accessible. The Cambridge Physical Activity Assessment will help us answer important questions like:
- What opportunities for physical activity exist in Cambridge?
- How are people currently engaging in physical activity?
- What barriers prevent people from being physically active?
- Who is not engaging in enough physical activity, and why?
Our goal is to develop recommendations that make physical activity more accessible for everyone. We are inviting community members to participate in online surveys or in-person focus groups. Focus group participants will receive a gift card as a thank-you for their time. Your input will help us improve physical activity options and create a healthier Cambridge for all.
We are recruiting seniors, youth under 16, girls in sports, parents of young children, people with disabilities, and those from various cultural backgrounds in phases.
