Bingocize® is a 10-week, evidence-based health promotion program approved through both SNAP-Ed and The National Council on Aging (NCOA).  Bingocize® combines exercise and health information with the familiar game of bingo, which is a great and fun way to get older adults moving and socializing.  It’s meant to be played twice a week on nonconsecutive days. Each session usually lasts 45-60 minutes.  We have various “curriculum” wokshops such as Exercise Only, Falls Prevention, and Nutrition, some of which are more appropriate than others for your particular group of seniors, depending on their level of physical and cognitive ability.  Bingocize® can be implemented remotely or in a traditional face-to-face setting.
