"Physical Activity is the closest thing we have to a magic bullet. Everything that gets worse as we get older gets better with exercise."
-Dr. I-Min Lee, Harvard Medical School
Over 175 people attended the Wellness by Design conference on Friday, March 27, 2009. Keynote speaker Debra Rose and many other speakers gave informative presentations on physical activity for older adults. Their presentations and resources can be viewed on the right.
The Health Trust has taken further action to continue promoting physical activity for older adults in our community. Below you will find a Request for Proposals (RFP) for grants that will be given to programs dedicated to expanding physical activity opportunities for older adults. Also, The Health Trust has issued a Wellness by Design Compendium outlining physical activity best practices for older adults.
