The Arthritis Foundation Walk With Ease Program is a 6-week community-based physical activity and self-management education program. While walking is the central activity, Walk With Ease is a multi-component program that also includes health education, stretching and strengthening exercises, and motivational strategies. SARCOA is pleased to offer Walk With Ease to our 7-County region that we serve. This is a self-directed program so you can start as slowly or progress as quickly and safely possible. Learn how to start your own Walk With Ease program below.
