What We Do

READINESS ASSESSMENT

Blue Zones experts will collaborate with leaders to assess readiness and build a plan for change. During this period we will: Educate and mobilize local leaders and residents, evaluate the community’s current state of well-being, identify the highest priority strengths, challenges and opportunities, and produce and present a plan for community transformation.

FREE TOOLS

Blue Zones engages individual community members through online health and well-being assessments, the True Vitality^® Test, True Happiness^® Test, True Nutrition 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.
