Dissemination is one of the four core activities provided by the
PRC. The e-mail newsletter about physical
activity and the listserv for physical
activity advocates are two important channels that the PRC uses
for disseminating physical activity information to public health
and physical activity researchers and practitioners.
E-mail Newsletter About Physical Activity
The USC Prevention Research Center Notes is an e-mail newsletter
with current information about physical activity and public health.
The newsletter includes:
- Brief updates of current journal articles
- Training opportunities - conferences, workshops
- Notices of new reports, materials, and resources
- Current policy issues
- Recommended websites
- Reminders of national health observances
- Updates from national organizations
To subscribe to the newsletter,
e-mail the Prevention Research Center at USCPRC@gwm.sc.edu,
with your name, title, and organizational affiliation. There is
no subscription cost.
Listserv For Physical Activity Advocates
The Physical Activity and Public Health On-Line Network
is a listserv advancing public health approaches to promoting physical
activity by creating a national network of public health practitioners,
researchers and interested others.
A listserv is a forum for electronic discussion. When a member
sends a message to the listserv, it is e-mailed to all members of
the list, and any member can reply. This is an excellent way to
get advice from colleagues, to share successes, and to pass on new
information. Listservs often have ongoing conversations about topics
of interest, with many members participating.
