Moving for Better Balance

Helping Participants Feel Strong, Steady and Safe

Every 14 seconds, an older adult is treated in the emergency room due to fall related injuries. Fall related injuries are a major public health concern for individuals age 60 and up as well as those living with chronic conditions.
