Central Oregon Otago Program

About Central Oregon Otago Program

Free, CDC-backed Otago fall-prevention program for older adults in Central Oregon. Participants get individual balance, strength, and mobility assessments, then a 16-week series of guided group exercise classes and home routines, delivered by trained volunteers and health education students to help people stay strong, steady, and independent in their own homes.

Volunteering looks like

Volunteers serve as exercise class leaders and class helpers, support community outreach and fall-prevention education, and staff events. Training is provided, and it's a strong fit for health and fitness students as well as active adults and retirees who enjoy working with older adults.
