PROBLEM
Less than 75% of Americans meet the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans. Mental health and physical health are intertwined.
INCREASING ACTIVITY
Moving more and decreasing sedentary time has been shown to benefit almost everyone.
PACE
Extension has been able to directly address physical activity since 2014, but extension agents have not always felt confident with delivery. Check out PACE below!
PROGRAMMING
Evidence based programs are available to help increase physical activity and promote mindfulness and self-care.
