Healthy Happenings

Author: Brenda Cockerham

Planning Unit: Johnson County CES

Major Program: Aging-General

Plan of Work: Improve Individual and Family Development

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

Building good health practices is one of the top priorities in the Family and Consumer Sciences Program. In 2022 beginning with Bingocise, followed by Fit Blue, then Gentle Yoga, we were able to move into a walking program and a slightly more advanced yoga and are now continuing with walking the trails and a monthly foods and nutrition lunch and learn program that fits nutritious goals. The never before reached clientele began coming to the program in February, then continued through each cycle of educational opportunities offered through FCS. Approximately 15 attendees not only came to each of the series offered for the past eight months but are now maintaining their activities on their own, improving their life skills and branching out into other Extension Program efforts as well.
