Older adult falls can be prevented with a few easy steps. Join us the week of September 18-22 in a national effort to increase awareness of falls prevention and empower older adults to take the first step to reduce their falls risk, be independent, and falls free. The National Council on Aging has created a suite of handouts that provide easy tips for older adults to find an exercise program, make modifications to their home, start a conversation with family and friends about falls, and more.

About NCOA
The National Council on Aging (NCOA) is the national voice for every person’s right to age well. We believe that how we age should not be determined by gender, color, sexuality, income, or zip code. Working with thousands of national and local partners, we provide resources, tools, best practices, and advocacy to ensure every person can age with health and financial security. Founded in 1950, we are the oldest national organization focused on older adults. Learn more at ncoa.org and @NCOAging.
