Join us for February’s Dine & Develop as we focus on practical, life-saving strategies to keep individuals, families, and communities safe. This month’s presentation, Steps to Safety: Fall Prevention and Fire & Life Safety, will provide valuable insights into two of the most critical areas of injury and emergency prevention.
Our presenters include Christy Tennent with CommonSpirit Health, who will share evidence-based fall prevention strategies, and Kalee Nappo with the Colorado Springs Fire Department, who will cover essential fire and life safety education, emergency preparedness, and best practices for prevention.
Attendees will walk away with actionable tools, increased awareness of common risks, and resources to help reduce preventable injuries and emergencies—both at home and within the community.
