During the second half of December 2025, AVFCA brought awareness to specific observance days by sharing our original stories that matched these themes:


Winter Safety Awareness Month : "Are Your Undergarments Making You Sick?: An Expose’ of What Transpires on Bare Skin”

Still Need to Do Day : “The Twists and Turns: Engaging in Physical Activity at Any Age”

Strength training (aka resistance training) seems to be positively associated with physical and mental health in the senior population. This includes using free weights, fitness machines at home or in the gym, and activities such as swimming and rowing. In addition, however you move your body, whether it’s walking in the park or dancing at the rec center, it will be beneficial for your mood and energy level, and impact how you sustain yourself through the years.

Our team also reads hundreds of articles each week, and those of interest are shared on our social media platforms. However, once or twice a week, our team reads an article that is profound or shares a perspective that is new or from an expert that AVFCA feels should be highlighted. These articles are shared on our Substack.
