A broad-based coalition of Southern Arizonans—including hospitals and health organizations, environmental advocacy groups, community centers, outdoor recreation groups, and others—worked together to define BEYOND’s year-round focus. What evolved from that collaboration was a unique health formula emphasizing four key pillars and related objectives that support optimum physical and mental health, forming the basis of Beyond’s mission.
EXPLORE:
To provide a way for people to explore the outdoors and to understand why it’s important for the body and the mind.
MOVE:
To help people move regularly and understand why it is a key component to living a healthy lifestyle.
NOURISH:
To encourage people to eat foods that are wholesome and nourishing to the body and understand why nutrition is important.
CONNECT:
To improve community cohesion and involvement and understand the benefits of connecting with fellow community members.
