The Move ‘n Mingle Group is an eight- week program for older adults to increase their awareness of personal and environ- mental fall risks, while encouraging fun and group interaction. The program also features weekly exercise instruction to help older adults maintain physical fitness.

This year, the Govern- ment of Canada will provide more than $33 million in funding for approximately 1,750 community projects.
