Leaves are changing, pumpkins are appearing, and fall adventures are calling! 🎃🍂

Ridesharing services can help older adults get to appointments, social activities, and seasonal events with ease, making it easier to stay independent and connected all season long.

🏥 Fall-related hospitalizations among adults age 65+ increased by 226.7%.

Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a community impacted by a fall.

This Falls Prevention Awareness Week, let’s work together to help older adults stay safe through exercise, home safety improvements, medication reviews, and regular health screenings.

🎉 It's Day 3 of Falls Prevention Awareness Week, and we're putting the spotlight on our STEPtember participants!

🙌 This year, FIVE organizations are stepping up to the challenge:

✅ Bazemore Active Adult Center
✅ Centralina Area Agency on Aging
✅ The Frankie Mae Foundation
✅ Mecklenburg County Senior Nutrition Program -Rockwell AME Zion location
✅ Senior Helpers - Pineville

Let's cheer them on as they walk their way through September! 👏

🚨 Did you know? Falls are the #1 cause of unintentional injury death among North Carolinians age 65 and older.

While falls are common, they are not a normal part of aging. Taking steps to improve balance, stay active, review medications, and make homes safer can significantly reduce fall risk.

This Falls Prevention Awareness Week, take one step toward prevention—and encourage a loved one to do the same.

LGBTQ+ seniors face more aging-related challenges than other seniors, in particular, isolation. Aging in intentional communities may provide the support they need.

Welcome to DFA, Dementia Friendly Centralina! Dementia Friendly Centralina is a grassroots initiative led by the Centralina Area Agency on Aging and a growing network of community organizations, businesses, health care providers, caregivers and advocates. As the initiative has grown, interest in dementia-friendly practices has expanded beyond Mecklenburg County and into the broader Centralina region.

In recognition of this regional growth and shared vision, the initiative is transitioning from Dementia Friendly Charlotte-Mecklenburg to Dementia Friendly Centralina. This new identity reflects an expanding regional effort to build communities where people living with dementia and their care partners feel understood, supported and respected.
