Walking Coaches
More than twenty residents were selected from the Greater Hattiesburg area to serve as community walking coaches for the H.U.B. City Steps program. Walking coaches serve as role models for promoting health and physical activity. The coaches’ commitment to promoting health in their community serves as a catalyst to encourage Hattiesburg residents to engage in better eating habits and increasing physical activity. More specifically, H.U.B City Steps Walking Coaches are self-motivated individuals who encourage health and fitness through walking. Each coach is responsible for recruiting a group of 10-12 participants from his/her workplace, neighborhood, or church. Coaches then provide their group members with the social support needed to set and reach obtainable walking goals.
The abbreviated spelling of H.U.B. City Steps is a play on the program motto "A Healthy 'U' Begins with Steps".
Mission Statement
H.U.B City Steps is a community-based walking initiative that encourages and motivates Hattiesburg residents toward a healthier lifestyle.
