Why Falls Prevention from ACL
• Falls are the leading cause of both fatal and nonfatal
injuries for people 65+
• Every 14 seconds, an older adult is seen in an emergency
department for a fall-related injury
• Falls are the leading cause of TBI
• Falls and their consequences cost the U.S. healthcare
system ~50 Billion annually
5
Participants Served to DateSince 2014, ACL grantees have delivered evidenced
based falls prevention programs to more than
6
65,000 older adults!
Falls Prevention Grant Goals:
Capacity-Building
• Goal 1: Develop capacity in areas with no or limited evidence-based
program infrastructure to introduce and deliver evidence-based falls
prevention programs within underserved geographic areas and/or
populations.
• Goal 2: Develop sustainability strategies to support the proposed
programs during and beyond the grant period.
7
Falls Prevention Grant Goals:
Sustainable Systems
• Goal 1: Significantly increase the number of older adults and older adults with disabilities at risk for falls who participate in evidence-based community programs to reduce falls and falls risks.
• Goal 2: Implement innovative funding arrangements, including contracts and collaborations with one or more sustainability partners, to support evidence-based falls prevention program(s) both during and beyond the grant period. Additionally, embed the program(s) into an integrated, sustainable evidence-based prevention program network via centralized, coordinated processes.
