NCOA Falls Prevention Awareness Week Toolkit
Falls among older adults continue to be a national public health concern. Join NCOA each year in September for Falls Prevention Awareness Week, a nationwide observance with state coalitions and partners to raise awareness on preventing falls, reducing the risk of falls, and helping older adults live without fear of falling.
All tools and resources in the Falls Prevention Awareness Week toolkit have been developed and curated to help you maximize your impact in raising falls prevention awareness to older adults you serve. You are encouraged to use these resources and repurpose them on your website and for any activities you have planned for September and throughout the year. Our toolkit offers digital and printable assets you can use to generate engagement, including encouraging your community to play a role in falls prevention.
