Success Stories

Leaders and decision-makers in rural communities may wonder “what other people are doing.”

The Success Stories in this section are from communities around Alberta. These initiatives come from different parts of the province and from communities of varying populations who face different issues.

One theme ties all of the stories together. All of these communities want to improve the health of their rural community members through active living.

Do you have a story to share about what is happening in your community to help people be more active as they age? Contact the Alberta Centre for Active Living at .
