Community programs provided by volunteers:

Health fairs

Our volunteers do a number of screenings to assess bone health: fracture risk screening, posture evaluation, shoe evaluation, calcium and vitamin D assessment.

Community talks

Trained as community speakers, our volunteers can speak to groups about osteoporosis diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Presentations can be tailored to older adults, health professionals and youth. Talks are offered in a variety of settings.

Bone Health Lecture Series

Our volunteers can identify local experts to speak in depth on bone health topics from nutrition and physical activity to diagnostics and treatment.
