Stay independent. Stay falls free. Falls prevention programs and workshops are available around the country in a variety of settings. The workshops help you improve strength, balance, coordination, and flexibility, and they really do prevent falls.
Falls prevention programs are more than just exercise. You can learn about trip hazards, how medications can increase your risk of falling, and how to overcome fear of falling.

About NCOA
Since 1950, we’ve walked beside generations of Americans. We were the first national voice for older adults. We helped end mandatory retirement. We advocated to secure Medicare, Medicaid, and the Older Americans Act. Local organizations turned to us for support as they served older adults every day. And we built digital tools that empower older adults with knowledge.
Now, we’re stepping forward to do even more. Americans are living longer, but far too many are being left behind without the resources to age with dignity. We’re changing that.
We believe aging well is something every American deserves—regardless of gender, color, sexuality, income, or ZIP code. We deliver the resources, tools, best practices, and advocacy our nation needs to ensure that every person can age with health and financial security.
