Promote lifelong health in Santa Clara County with
Healthy Steps in Silicon Valley: Resources for health and fitness after 50

Mission Statement:  To engage the community in improving quality of life for seniors in our county, empowering adults to prevent and manage chronic health conditions, decrease falls, and stay mobile and independent longer.  

Healthy Steps in Silicon Valley (HSSV) is a free guidebook available in Spanish and English, and is a resource for:

• Staying Engaged in the Community
• Exercises to Practice at Home
• Overcoming Obstacles to Being Active
• Fall Prevention
• Affordable Local Resources for Health
• Nutrition, Mental Health Resources, Caregiver Support, Volunteering, and More!

How do we plan to make a positive and lasting impact in our community?

• Reaching out to adults who can benefit the most:
• Sedentary adults, those with chronic health conditions, and those with limited access to health resources
• Engaging them in a presentation of the guidebook (one-on-one, or in groups)
• Providing an optional follow-up call
