Healthy Monday

Healthy Monday is a non-profit public health initiative that provides research-based campaigns to help individuals and organizations adopt healthy behaviors at the start of each week. Founded in 2005 in association with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health, and Syracuse University, the organization focuses on chronic disease prevention. Its programs, including Meatless Monday and Move It Monday, offer actionable steps for improving nutrition, physical activity, and mental health. Healthy Monday partners with hospitals, schools, and workplaces globally to implement these wellness strategies into daily routines. The initiative leverages the 'fresh start effect' to make healthy choices simple and sustainable for diverse populations.
