Healthy lifestyles promote personal and community health​

The maintenance of good health and wellbeing are some of life’s most important priorities. Healthy people are better able to manage their lives, they have more energy to deploy in work and leisure, and they live more active, adventurous lives. Despite the continued development of medicine and information that helps us live longer, healthier lives, thousands of individuals encounter preventable illness in the USA each week.

Practice healthy habits with kids in your life.

It starts with all of us making a commitment to live 5-2-1-0 every day. Make your house the place where you serve a variety of colorful fruits and veggies, serve water to drink, and take an hour to play active games.

2. Engage in your school's efforts to encourage healthy practices.

Schools become healthier when parents speak up. Seek opportunities to volunteer or join groups/committees at your child's school or the school district. Encourage all fundraisers to have healthy options and encourage your child's classroom celebrations to feature non-food treats or healthy alternatives. Ask your district about its local wellness policy that guides student health efforts and how you can help update it.  

3. Learn more about the decisions local officials are making that impact your environment.

Many cities are considering proposals that focus on creating safe walking routes and places to play and increase access to trails and other opportunities to exercise. MoveDSM is a transportation master plan that outlines a course to advance work around creating a complete and safe transportation network in Des Moines for all users. The Central Iowa Well Kids Coalition is advancing initiatives like this one through our advocacy agenda.  

4. Give back healthy options to your community

Join a community garden or your Giving Garden at work (better yet, start a Giving Garden at your workplace!) and help harvest produce to donate to local food pantries. Or when donating to food pantries, make sure you're giving healthy options, including low-sodium canned food. If you're hosting an event, look into food rescue options for your leftovers--especially if you're making your food choices healthy.

5. Seek out volunteer opportunities that engage kids.

Help encourage kids to spend less time on screens and more time getting exercise and reading. United Way offers a lot of options to mentor kids in reading, as well as to engage in other volunteer activities. In the process, you'll build social connections, which improves children's mental health and well-being--and yours!
