What is PoCoMotion?
PoCoMotion was developed in 2009 as a community initiative focused on supporting a healthy community that promotes healthy lifestyles and encourages residents to become more physically active. PoCoMotion is a part of the BCRPA’s Active Communities Initiative, a provincial initiative focused on increasing physical activity levels of British Columbians 20% by 2010.

PoCoMotion is one of over 160 registered Active Communities in British Columbia that is working to promote and support a way of life in which physical activity is valued and integrated into daily life. The Active Communities Initiative is a component of a larger wellness initiative called Act Now BC which is aimed at increasing physical activity, improving healthy eating practices, reducing tobacco consumption and increasing awareness of healthy pregnancies among British Columbiaresidents.
