Pathways to Health
Pathways to Health is a
service of the Sarasota County Health Department that:
- Assists with establishing indoor and outdoor
walking paths in neighborhoods, at churches, schools, libraries,
and other places where people get together
- Recognizes existing trails as
healthy walking paths
- Works with the South County Family
YMCA to coordinate walking groups or activities at Pathways to Health sites
Utilizing sidewalks and other existing
infrastructure, these paths are established within the current built
environment. Paths are marked by signs that include a route map,
path distance in mileage and steps, and health messages that
encourage proper, frequent walking. (Click
here for an example path sign.)
