Provide links to other resources

More and more organizations are actively engaged in falls prevention programs with older adults. Help your members find out about other programs or groups in your community that may be helpful to them. Among other things, you could:

• Bring in experts: A special speaker or panel can spark interest in other resources. With permission, you could even videotape the presentation for future use.
• Have a section on your bulletin board for falls prevention news from the community.
• Post the number of your community "hotline" (if there is one) for your members to report hazards they identify.

See Resources for more information on what is available to you.
