Let's get walking this September!!

One in three Ohioans age 65 and older experience a fall each year.

With September being Ohio Falls Prevention Awareness Month, the Ohio Department of Aging (ODA) is working to raise awareness of ways older Ohioans can minimize their risk of falling.

ODA’s STEADY U Ohio initiative is challenging all Ohioans to help take “10 Million Steps to Prevent Falls.”

Walk at least one mile during September and post a picture of yourself walking to social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, X [formerly Twitter], or Instagram) using the hashtags and . Be sure to set your post privacy to “public.” Each post showing someone walking and using the hashtags will count as one mile toward the state goal.

We’ll be participating, too, and will share updates on our staff’s progress throughout the month!
