Health Promotion Classes & Benefits
Our Agency has certified staff members who teach a variety of Evidence-Based Programs. These programs offer proven ways to promote health and prevent disease among older adults.
These Evidence-Based Programs are based on research and provide documented health benefits. Older adults who participate in EBPs can lower their risk of chronic diseases and falls, or improve long-term effects of chronic diseases or falls.
If you or someone you know would be interested in attending one of these classes or would like more information please contact our office at 205-333-2990 or
