In Motion Week

It’s a time to get off our couches and get in motion! To help celebrate the week, many of our community partners are excited to once again be able to offer some free and fun activities planned during the week.

Physical activity promotes positive mental health, helps manage stress, and has been linked to improvements in mental health conditions, such as depression and dementia. Participation in regular physical activity is also an important factor in the prevention and management of leading chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, as well as breast and colon cancer. Even a short break from sitting, such as walking or stretching, can be beneficial to us.
