Working together to reduce injuries for older adults.
The Marion County Fall Prevention Coalition brings together area agencies, service providers, and community partners. Together they volunteer to offer free screenings, hands-on assessments, strength & balance workshops, and serve as a repository of trusted local resources for older adults, their caregivers, and the healthcare providers that serve them.

Falls may be common in adults ages 65 and older, but are not a normal part of aging and many can be prevented. Discuss with your doctor how you can stay safe, injury-free, and independent longer.
Did you know you have the power to reduce your risk of falling? Take the National Council on Aging's Falls Free CheckUp to see what causes falls and how you can prevent them.
