Don’t Let a Fall Cramp Your Style!

Don’t Let a Fall Cramp Your Style! Are you an older adult with a fear of falling? Falls are not a normal part of aging, yet one out of every three adults age 65 and older falls every year and most have significant health and lifestyle consequences as a result. Thanks to grant funding through the Good Shepherd Foundation, a free seven-week workshop for older adults, called Stepping On, is starting in September 2018. It is led by a healthcare professional and peer leader and is appropriate for independent community-dwelling older adults with a history of falls, at risk of falls, or who have a fear of falls. It will be offered at Shepherd of Grace in Becker on September 18, September 25, October 2, October 9, October 16, October 23 & October 30 from 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. To register or to receive more information, call Kassara Kneeland at 320-258-9357 or kassarakneeland@gsc-mn.org. Pre-registration is required by August 31. There will be more information coming in the near future!
