Healthy Town, a unique health promotion program, has demonstrated success in improving the health of seniors in diverse communities.

Using innovative computer screening technology, Healthy Town identifies senior health risk concerns such as safety and injury prevention, alcohol, medication, and family abuse, anxiety and depression, and links seniors to follow-up for chronic illnesses.

The program educates staff at community centers about the health needs of their seniors, and guides them to develop on-site health programs. The Healthy Town web site presents easy to use health information specific to the technology screening questions.
