San Diego Seniors Community Foundation (SDSCF), the first community foundation in the UNITED STATES dedicated exclusively to seniors, is holding a special SCREENING OF THE SAVING CLAIRE: The Story of Denying Gravity on September 22 with the goal to teach older adults to learn how to fall.Falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal injuries among older adults. Over 14 million, or 1 in 4 older adults report falling every year and result in over 3 million emergency department visits and nearly 1 million hospitalizations annually.
