Falls are a leading cause of injury among older adults. Each year, one in four people aged 65 or older experiences a fall, which can affect mobility, independence, and overall quality of life.

To help address this issue, Northeast Iowa Area Agency on Aging (NEI3A) is offering Healthy Steps for Older Adults (HSOA), an evidence-based fall risk screening and education program designed for adults age 50 and older.

This interactive class provides practical guidance on reducing fall risks through:

Choosing proper footwear
Making your home safer
Maintaining good nutrition for bone health
Practicing simple exercises that build strength and balance

Participants will also take home a program handbook with exercises and resources to support ongoing health and independence.

Date & Time: Thursday, December 18, 9:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Location: West Side Family Restaurant, 229 6th Ave. W, Grinnell, IA 50112

Lunch will be provided. The classes are available with a suggested voluntary contribution of $25. Scholarships are available for those who request financial assistance.
