Mass in Motion is a statewide movement that promotes opportunities for healthy eating and active living in the places people live, learn, work and play.

We work with communities, schools, childcare centers, and businesses to create changes that make it easy for people to eat better and move more.

We also help residents think differently about what they eat and how much they move so they can make better choices to feel healthy and live well.

Together, we can create healthier communities, and a healthier Commonwealth.
