Monday, March 26, 2012 - Blue Zones Project: Let's Make Iowa #1 in Well-Being

The Blue Zones Project is a collaboration of Wellmark and Healthways to ignite a
community-by-community movement to improve the well-being of Iowa communities. Specifically this will be done by applying the learnings and research from Blue Zones, Healthways, and Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index^®.

Ten Iowa communities will be selected to participate in a community transformation effort to make permanent environment and policy changes to improve the emotional, physical, and social health of their residents. This should result in lower health care cost trends, higher productivity, and increased economic viability.

Join us on Monday, March 26 as fellow Rotarian, Jason Gordon, discusses the Blue Zone Project and Iowa’s quest to become the healthiest state in the nation by 2016.  Guests will be billed at a rate of $12 per person.
