Kansas City Physical Activity Summit**

September 10, 2020 @ 8:30 am - 12:30 pm
Take part in the Physical Activity Summit this fall and help create the Kansas City Region’s first ever Physical Activity Plan!

Join us!

The Kansas City Physical Activity Plan (KCPA Plan) will be a set of policies, programs, and initiatives designed to increase rates of physical activity in Kansas City. The KCPA Plan aims to foster a local culture that supports physically active lifestyles. Its goal is to improve health, prevent disease and disability, and enhance the quality of life for all KC residents. The Physical Activity Summit will be an online event engaging with partners from across the various sectors that impact physical activity in Kansas City.

The PA Summit is excited to have Kelly Cornett, MS, as its keynote speaker. Kelly is a Health Scientist on the Translation and Evaluation Team in the Physical Activity and Health Branch of the Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). She collaborates with partners to promote physical activity at the population level while participating in research, partnership development, and technical assistance. With an educational background in Exercise Physiology and Health Promotion, she uses her communication skills to synthesize evidence-based research into messages, resources, and promotional materials related to physical activity to support walkable, active communities.
