An in motion community is one that values physical activity. Community members and organizations work together to create supportive 
environments encouraging people to make physical activity a part of their daily lives.
In motion communities encourage all parts of the community such as local governments, health services, recreation services, schools, workplaces and neighbourhoods to do their parts to increase physical activity opportunities for everyone.
There are many potential benefits to being an in motion community:
• Healthier, more active residents
• Healthier schools and workplaces
• Increased use of recreation programs and facilities
• Improved quality of life which can attract more people and businesses
• Sharing a common vision …a healthy and vibrant lifestyle for residents in Southwestern Ontario Communities.
