Let's Move Iowa!
(Join the Iowa Move Your Way® Campaign)
The CCPH Team has partnered with Healthy Iowan's and the Healthiest State Initiative to support statewide adoption of the Move Your Way® campaign.
The national Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (ODPHP) developed the Move Your Way campaign to help initiate a national movement for physical activity. The campaign is aligned with the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans which encourages at least 30 minutes of physical activity on most days of the week. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, the Move Your Way emphasizes personalized, practical strategies that people can use to fit more activity into their busy lives.
Our Iowa-specific campaign has been developed in collaboration with the ODPHP to make it easier to communities and organizations in Iowa to join the movement. We have developed customized logos and social media resources that will provide a more localized experience. An Iowa -specific Playbook has state, regional and county-level resources and support. It contains resources and links relevant to health professionals, organizations, groups or whole communities.
Some basic resources are shown here but we can help you customize them and provide suggestions for how to get started. Register through our Smartsheet form to learn more.
Use this pledge sheet to help promote Move Your Way in your community.
You can print out the Move Your Way pledge sheet to share at schools, workplaces, or community events. Ask people to write down how they plan to get active this week — then display all the completed pledge sheets. You can also ask people to take a selfie with their pledge sheets to share on social media with the hashtag #MoveYourWay!
