According to the CDC, 1 in 4 adults experience a fall each year, often resulting in serious injuries such as fractures or head trauma. To help mitigate fall risks in the home, the City of College Park is offering a rebate of up to $150 to College Park residents over the age of 62 for the purchase and/or installation of a grab bar in their home.
