MOVE!

MOVE! is a national weight loss management program to help Veterans lose weight, keep it off and improve their health. Each facility has its own MOVE! program for both Veterans and employees. To learn more about MOVE!, visit the national website: http://www.move.va.gov

VISN 20 Prosthetics/MOVE! Cycle Competition

The annual VISN 20 Prosthetics/ MOVE! Cycle Competition promotes health and wellness for Veterans, employees, volunteers and families; a transportation alternative; and reducing the carbon imprint to improve the environment.

VISN 20 facilities voluntarily participate in a local cycle event sometime during June through October. The facility with the most miles ridden wins the VISN 20 cycle trophy, awarded on VHA’s national Prosthetics Day.
