Get Moving and Eat Healthier

INspire Healthy Families is an Indiana Department of Health initiative being championed by First Lady Maureen Braun. The goal of the initative is to help Hoosier families build healthier habits together through simple, practical daily choices. Rooted in the belief that strong families are built at home, the initiative encourages parents, grandparents, and children to make wellness a shared priority in ways that feel fun, realistic, and sustainable.

As part of the initiative, the First Lady is asking Hoosier families to commit to sharing one healthy meal together with a plate that includes protein, vegetables, and fruit. After dinner, families are encouraged to spend 10 minutes moving together — whether that means taking a walk, dancing in the kitchen, playing outside, or any activity that gets everyone moving.

Hoosier families can follow along on the First Lady’s social media pages (Facebook and Instagram) as she works to INspire healthy families across Indiana. Families are also invited to join the movement by sharing how they are staying healthy together using #INspireHealthyFamilies.
