dc.descriptionThis manual is designed for organizations and individuals who are interested in starting a walking group in their community. Walk Your Heart to Health is a group walking program that emphasizes social support and group cohesion. It seeks to address common challenges to walking in urban areas and to build on community strengths (e.g., community-based organizations). It is especially designed for those who live in areas with fewer resources for recreation, where the environment is more challenging for physical activity, or those who simply prefer walking with others in a group. The program meets the minimum recommendations for physical activity, and can be adapted for those who wish to walk at differing paces or distances.en_US
