Resource Library
The Resource Library is a database of ready-to-use resources to help you plan, implement, evaluate and sustain your program. The library includes links to external resources created by government and non-profit organizations, new resources developed by the Minding Our Bodies team, and resources created by mental health agencies with physical activity programs and/ or healthy eating programs that have joined the online community of practice. The purpose of the library is to share ready-to-use templates, forms, questionnaires and guides to help leaders develop and maintain their own physical activity programs and/or healthy eating programs in community mental health organizations.
