Sound Steps is a volunteer supported walking program with Seattle Parks and Recreation, Senior Adult Programs. This program is designed to get senior adults moving and gaining the health benefits of regular exercise.

Participants in this FREE, year-round program are connected to other walkers on their level and given tools to measure progress. Encouragement comes from the support of volunteer walk leaders and regular check-ins.

Volunteers are needed for the Sound Steps program! If you would like to help lead walks, keep track of walker data, promote the program or motivate others, please contact the information listed above.

This project is funded by a federal grant, administered through the Steps Project with the Seattle King County Health Department.
