WIHA was recently awarded funding from the Wisconsin Partnership Program to expand the high-level evidence-based program, Pisando Fuerte. Soon, WIHA will be onboarding a Bilingual Falls Prevention Program Coordinator who will recruit, train, and provide support to facilitators and program providers across Wisconsin.
We are now seeking facilitators from Hispanic/Latino organizations to become trained in the Pisando Fuerte program and offer the workshop within their communities. Throughout the next two years, Wisconsin facilitators will be eligible to attend the training at NO COST. In addition, Wisconsin facilitators will be eligible to receive up to $700 per workshop offered (up to 3).
