South Euclid, OH
AARP Community Challenge Grant Year: 2024
Project Category: HomeFit Modifications
Description: Falls are a leading cause of injury for older adults, yet many lacked practical strategies to prevent them. The organization hosted educational sessions and distributed safety kits with items like nonslip strips, LED lights and gripper socks, along with the HomeFit Guide. Social activities such as fall prevention bingo reinforced learning and encouraged engagement. Participants reported feeling more confident and appreciated tools that made daily tasks easier. "I'll feel safer in the shower once I use these nonslip strips," said one attendee, reflecting the project's tangible impact on home safety.
