SDSU Extension collaborates with the South Dakota Department of Health to offer Physical Activity (PA) programming designed to help adults living with ongoing physical and/or mental health conditions understand how physical activity can improve quality of life, boost self-confidence, and inspire positive lifestyle changes. The PA Program also provides training to volunteers to offer PA programs in their own communities throughout South Dakota.
Two physical activity programs were offered in 2025: Walk With Ease and EnhanceFitness.
This annual report provides 2025 data on the utilization and outcomes of the SDSU Extension PA Programs. The specific aims were to share information on the number and types of programs offered, characteristics of participants, participant-reported outcomes at completion, and satisfaction with services provided.
