Why This Matters for Our Community
Mary Louise Wallace’s vision was to provide more than a gathering space—she wanted every older adult in Greenwich to have access to life-enhancing opportunities.

Fall Risk Balance Assessment Program
The Wallace Center partnered with Sacred Heart University’s Physical Therapy program to offer individualized, research-backed balance assessments for older adults. Participants received a personalized evaluation of their balance, mobility and fall risk using standardized evidence-based measures. Each attendee left with tailored recommendations to improve safety, stability and confidence in daily movement—supporting independence and fall prevention.
