Abstract
Outdoor time is important for maximizing health. Unfortunately, certain social determinants of health (SDH) — such as low socioeconomic status, differing physical abilities, and lack of knowledge of how to engage in an outdoor setting — hinder individuals from harnessing nature as a health tool. Wilderness Inquiry (WI) — an outdoor activity-leading organization — addresses these obstacles through inclusive, educational outreach programs. This qualitative assessment evaluates WI’s response to the aforementioned SDH through utilization of community assets and company programs.
