New Brain Health Resources Available

New brain health resources are available for educators and consumers!

ACL's 2018 update of its Brain Health Resource offers a PowerPoint presentation for professionals to use in educating older adults and adults with disabilities about brain health as we age, and a related handout for consumers. These materials update and simplify educational materials from a 2014 collaboration between ACL, the National Institutes for Health (NIH), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The PowerPoint presentation (PPT, 4.3MB) helps people learn how to reduce the risks related to brain health. This presentation addresses normal aging of the brain, threats to brain health, and healthy aging for the body and brain.
A two-page handout (PDF, 1.7MB) for the consumer audience covers the basics of brain health.

Additional materials can be found on ACL's Brain Health webpage.
