Be part of something great! Communities all over the state are teaming up to get moving toward a healthier lifestyle.

This 12-week program kicks off with a health fair and information event. While you are there, enroll in a team competition. Here's what you do:

 

Get one to five people (co-workers, family members, and friends) who are ready to eat healthier and exercise more for their health.

Choose a name for your team.

Each week, attend an educational session and share the information with team members who could not attend. Members must attend seven of ten educational sessions, health screenings, and team meetings.

After 12 weeks, teams/members who meet the attendance, weight loss, activity and educational goals will be recognized.

Mississippi in Motion is a 12-week educational program focusing on developing healthy habits for life.
