The Living Younger Longer Institute The Living Younger Longer Institute is an autonomous educational, applied research and program development institution in the Denver area. Public and community engagement is not new for the Institute. We have been involved in this cause in some shape or form for three decades. The Institute is engaged in a number of efforts to raise physical activity levels here in Colorado and across the country. The work of promoting physically active lifestyles is of national importance. We collaborate every day with partners around the country to implement effective strategies that promote physical activity.
