MOVE! Weight Management Program

MOVE! Weight Management Program in Savoonga, AK, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of Veterans through effective weight management and health promotion strategies. Our mission is to annually assess every Veteran in VA facilities for obesity and connect them with appropriate weight management services tailored to their individual needs and preferences. We offer a range of care options, including supportive group sessions, telephone lifestyle coaching, and the innovative TeleMOVE! program, which allows for in-home messaging and clinician support. Veterans seeking a more independent approach can benefit from the MOVE! Coach mobile app. For those who continue to face challenges with weight, we also provide access to weight loss medications and bariatric surgery. To embark on this journey toward improved health, Veterans are encouraged to speak with their local MOVE! Coordinator or VA provider to learn how to get started.
