Healthy Cedar Rapids

Healthy Cedar Rapids A community-wide well-being improvement initiative to create healthier, happier and more productive citizens in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

In January, 2013, the City of Cedar Rapids was named a Blue Zones Demonstration Site and began work to become a Blue Zones Community®. The goal was to encourage citizens of Cedar Rapids to take steps to live happier, healthier, longer lives. In March 2016, Cedar Rapids became the 15th certified Blue Zones Community in the nation. Blue Zones Project Cedar Rapids has inspired countless individuals to take steps toward a better quality of life and create a greater sense of well-being. The City’s contract with the Blue Zones Project ended in February 2018. Joining forces with Healthy Hometown Powered by Wellmark enables the City to continue to focus on improving the quality of life for our residents and making it easier to get around within the community. The Healthy Hometown model centers on improvements in three key areas: eat well, move more and feel better. Re-imagining city blocks, helping residents get around safely, and encouraging fresh food consumption are just a few things on Cedar Rapids' to-do list.
