No jokes—just steps! 🚫🤡👟

Today, AHCS employees across the organization participated in National Walking Day. To promote health and program flexibility, the agency supported staff by providing 30 minutes of dedicated time to get outside and walk. This also kicked off our April Steps Challenge for employees in the agency.

From our organized group walks this morning to individual strolls throughout the day, we love seeing our team active and energized. Here are a few highlights from this morning’s participants!👇
