What a joyful evening celebrating the Korean Service Center's 35th anniversary!

Our President and CEO was honored to serve as a keynote speaker and share reflections on MAAA's longstanding partnership with KSC. We heard inspiring stories about the difference KSC has made in the lives of Korean older adults, enjoyed beautiful musical performances and tai chi, and were treated to amazing food prepared by KSC staff.

Thank you for including us in this special celebration. Congratulations on 35 years of impact, community, and service. We are proud to be your partner.

Fall is officially here, and that means it's National Falls Prevention Awareness Week!

Falls are not a normal part of aging, and there are proven ways to reduce risk while maintaining strength, balance and independence.

Through Yourjuniper's evidence-based programs, older adults across Minnesota are building confidence and staying active.

Read how Minneapolis resident Suzie strengthened her balance and reduced her fear of falling through Juniper's A Matter of Balance program:
