“Where We Are Tells Us Where We Are
Going”
1:20pm – 3:20pm
The ways in which we have managed both the
landscape and the infrastructure of the San
Gabriel River over the last 100 years have
significantly altered its role. But by looking at
the natural and human influences in the past,
we can imagine the possibilities for future
revitalization within the bounds of the
region’s changing demographics and water
supply needs.

“Healthy Bodies, Healthy Spaces”
3:20pm – 5:20pm
Linking the benefits of open space to public
health is not a new concept, but a key
question remains – how does the way we
inhabit our habitat affect our physical and
mental well-being? And how do we engage
our communities to recognize that protecting
their local resources is a means to improve
their own health?
