Active Texas 2030: Military Sector

Event Description

The Michael and Susan Dell Center for Healthy Living presents the Active Texas 2030 discussion series.

The US National Physical Activity Plan provides a societal sector road map for improving physical activity in the US. The goal of this discussion series is to highlight each societal sector’s recommended strategies and tactics and to provide contexts for adapting the US National Physical Activity Plan to create Active Texas 2030 - a state plan for all Texans.

The Military Sector recognizes that physical inactivity is more than a public health epidemic, it is also a significant threat to U.S. national security. Physical activity is vital to increasing the health and military readiness of our nation’s warfighters, and improving the quality and length of life among Veterans, civilian employees of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), and families of service members.
