Move Your Way Iowa

Move Your Way Iowa is a statewide public health campaign that encourages Iowans to move more, sit less, and find physical activity they enjoy, no matter their age, ability, or experience level. Based on national Physical Activity Guidelines, Move Your Way focuses on helping people take small, realistic steps toward a more active lifestyle.

Through partnerships with communities, worksites, extension offices, and local organizations across Iowa, this campaign promotes inclusive, accessible ways to be active, whether that’s walking, strength training, stretching, or everyday movement. Volunteers and partners support outreach efforts such as event promotion, social media engagement, resource distribution, and community-based physical activity initiatives.

By participating, you’ll help spread evidence based physical activity messaging, support behavior change at the community level, and contribute to a healthier, more active Iowa. This is a great opportunity for students and community members interested in public health, health promotion, kinesiology, or community engagement to gain hands-on experience while making a meaningful impact.
