Free and Kid Friendly
There are 100 reasons to walk! Family walks are a positive childhood experience and it satisfies the "1" in your daily 5-2-1-0 healthy active living checklist!
Walk with a Doc (WWAD) was started in Columbus, Ohio in April of 2005 by Dr. David Sabgir and has now expanded throughout the world. With an aim to make hope and health accessible to all, WWAD doctor-led walking groups are a safe, fun, and FREE place to get some steps, learn about health, and meet new friends.
The Nevada AAP is proud to lead kid-friendly Walk with a Doc events in Las Vegas, Reno, and online.

History
For over 6 years, the Nevada Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (Nevada AAP) has led in-person Walk with a Doc events to encourage families to learn about pediatric health topics and then go for a walk with doctors in our community.
COVID-19
Starting in April 2020, the Nevada AAP changed our monthly in-person Walk with a Doc events for the Las Vegas and Reno communities into one, state-wide virtual event the second Sunday of every month as we waited for COVID-19 vaccine for kids 6 months and older.
