What We Do
ACTIVATE
Our community-led initiatives are so effective because we create lasting impact by changing the environment in which people live, work, and play. Creating a healthier environment is the foundation to reducing healthcare claims and costs, increasing workforce productivity, and changing the culture of well-being in the community. Becoming a Blue Zones community is a three-phase process, and Phase II of Blue Zones Activate begins the foundational work of improving food policy and built environment policies immediately.
FREE TOOLS
Blue Zones engages individual community members through online health and well-being assessments, the True Vitality® Test and True Happiness® Test, and an interactive Blue Zones® Life Challenge. All are available for free to all community members as part of the program. These customized online tools are designed to help raise individual awareness surrounding personal health and well-being, with the goal of increasing overall life expectancy.
MASON COUNTY ACTIVATE DIRECTOR
Julie Knott is the local Mason County Activate Director. Over the course of the Blue Zones Activate initiative, she will work with local leaders, the local steering committee, and Blue Zones experts to develop built environment and food policy strategies that will improve the health of everyone in Mason County.
