Take part in building the Kansas City Region’s first ever Physical Activity Plan!
The Kansas City Physical Activity Plan (KCPA Plan) is designed to be a comprehensive set of strategies and priorities that are evidence-based and informed by local community leaders to increase rates of physical activity.
The KCPA Plan is organized by societal sector and it is led by Sector Work Groups. The vision of the KCPA Plan is to build a culture of physically active lifestyles throughout Kansas City for residents of all ages and abilities.
The KCPA Plan
The KCPA Plan draws from local research studies, community recommendations on physical activity, and national physical activity reports, including the National Physical Activity Plan and the United States Report Card on Physical Activity for Children & Youth.
The KCPA Plan is organized by the Core Work Group and individual Sector Work Groups.
Kansas City Healthy Lifestyles Collaborative, a program at Children's Mercy that seeks to align community programs to promote healthy lifestyles within our region, serves as the backbone organization for the KCPA Plan by supporting the Core Work Group and each of the Sector Work Groups.
Kansas City Region
The KCPA Plan focuses on the six counties that make up the majority of the Kansas City metropolitan area: Jackson, Clay, Cass and Platte Counties in Missouri, and Wyandotte and Johnson Counties in Kansas.
