MOVE! Weight Management Program

MOVE! Weight Management Program in Gakona, AK is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of Veterans through comprehensive weight management and health promotion. Our mission is to support every Veteran who receives care at VA facilities by screening for obesity and connecting them with tailored weight management services. We offer a range of options, including group sessions, telephonic lifestyle coaching, and the innovative TeleMOVE! program, which allows participants to receive support from the comfort of home. For those who prefer a self-directed approach, our MOVE! Coach mobile app provides essential tools to manage weight independently. Additionally, we recognize the importance of personalized care; thus, we offer weight loss medications and bariatric surgery for Veterans who need further assistance after engaging with MOVE!. Interested Veterans are encouraged to reach out to their local MOVE! Coordinator or VA provider to begin their journey towards a healthier lifestyle.
