Good morning,

We are excited to share a new funding opportunity from NCOA’s Center for Healthy Aging.

The Innovations in Falls Prevention Grant opportunity is seeking organizations who have creative solutions to reducing older adult falls. Low-income older adults have various options to access food in their local communities. An older adult may seek assistance with a food pantry, farmer's market, or commodity food box program for household groceries. They may also visit a senior center for a congregate meal. SNAP enrollment may require in-person activity to apply or redeem in grocery stores or restaurants. Regardless of where an older adult chooses to obtain food, fall risk may exist.

This 12-month grant aims to bridge the gap between nutrition services & food access with falls prevention. If interested, you may also focus on falls prevention innovations in other focus areas (Housing & First Responders/Emergency Medical Services).

The application is now open and will close on April 30, 2024. Visit our website for more information: https://www.ncoa.org/article/grant-opportunity-innovations-in-falls-prevention.

There will be an informational webinar this Thursday, April 4, 2024. Registration Here
