Article Publication Date
Summary
ASTHO is now accepting applications for the 2027 Falls Prevention Virtual Community of Practice (CoP). This cohort-based learning experience will provide a platform for participating teams to exchange insights, develop action plans, refine implementation approaches, and strengthen planning for expanding falls prevention through community-clinical linkages.
CoP participants will engage in a series of virtual sessions to learn from fellow teams and experts and receive technical assistance to implement STEADI-based strategies for preventing falls among older adults. Additionally, participants will contribute to ASTHO’s Virtual Falls Prevention Summit in the summer of 2027, highlighting promising practices and evidence-based interventions to a national audience.
The estimated participation period will be January to July 2027. The deadline for submissions is Friday, October 30, at 11:59 p.m.
