Many older adults experience concerns about falling and restricting their activities. A Matter of Balance is an award-winning program designed to manage falls and increase activity levels through practical strategies. Two new classes are starting in October—one in Winthrop and one in Revere. Classes are free. Please join us!

Lewis Mall Library Committee The Lewis Mall PACE Center is pleased to be forming a Library Committee. The committee is organizing a kickoff celebration to dedicate the library to Rosa Kouyoumjdian, whose family has generously funded our new library in Rosa’s memory. Our new library will substantially increase our collection of reading materials. If you have books to donate, please let us know. Eileen Zaino is the contact for book donations; she may be reached at zainoe@ebnhc.org. We have collected 50 paperback and hard cover books so far. Magazine subscriptions will also be ordered.
Jason Fitz-Gerald, an East Boston painter and multimedia artist, began offering art classes at the Elder Service Plan Lewis Mall PACE Center earlier this summer, which culminated in an art show on July 24. Everyone has enjoyed working with Jason (pictured at right) and we’re so pleased to have him! Read all about Jason's important program here.
Twelve of our Elder Service Plan Lewis Mall participants just graduated from our Matter of Balance class, a 6-week program that promotes a healthy attitude toward exercise and activity while reducing falls among older adults. Class instructors are Pat Bellone, Activities Assistant, and Janice Capozzi, Rehab Aide. Another session of classes began on 5/27/09.
