The Arizona Falls Prevention Coalition works to reduce the risk of falls in Arizona through education, outreach, evaluation and advocacy. Developed to promote evidence-based falls prevention approaches, the Arizona Falls Prevention Coalition (AFPC) helps coordinate existing efforts, provide technical assistance, and increase the opportunities for older adults to enhance their quality of life. The Coalition provides education and information to help older adults in Arizona improve their flexibility and balance, reduce their fear of falling, and decrease the likelihood of a fall.
