The Center acts as the primary technical assistance, education, and resource hub for the national aging network, supporting both discretionary and formula-funded falls prevention grantees. Its purpose is to increase the reach and quality of evidence-based falls prevention programs for older adults and adults with disabilities, promote best practices, facilitate data collection and reporting, and foster partnerships that advance the field and ensure sustainability.
