How to apply for Area Agency on Aging 3 Health & Wellness Workshops (Hardin County) in Ohio

Area Agency on Aging 3 (Lima) — Older Americans Act Title III-D evidence-based health promotion

Who it's for

Area Agency on Aging 3 runs five free evidence-based workshops for Hardin County adults 60 and older. A Matter of Balance is an 8-week workshop for people who have fallen or fear falling, meeting 2 hours a week in groups of 8 to 12, led by two trained peer coaches, covering exercise, home safety, assertiveness and goal setting. Tai Ji Quan: Moving for Better Balance is a research-based balance-training regimen for older adults at risk of falling and people with balance disorders. Tai Chi for Health is a gentler movement class. Powerful Tools for Caregivers supports family caregivers. Bingocize is a 10-week program that combines bingo with health education, nutrition and exercise to keep people mobile and cut fall risk. The workshops are free and run on a schedule, so ask the agency when the next session starts in your area.

These workshops are free and open to Hardin County residents age 60 and older — there is no income test. Sessions run on a schedule with limited class sizes (A Matter of Balance takes 8 to 12 people), so a seat depends on when the next session starts near you. A Matter of Balance is designed for people who are ambulatory. Not legal or financial advice. The agency makes the final decision.
