Unintentional falls increase morbidity and mortality in older adults. The consequences of falls for older adults and their families and communities support the need for evidence-based fall prevention programming that can be implemented effectively on a community-wide basis. However, translating research findings into communities is an ongoing challenge for public health. The Interactive Systems Framework for Dissemination and Implementation describes systems that can help bridge this gap between science and practice. The current study describes the process of implementing a randomized community trial to assess whether a prevention support system (i.e., “enhanced support system”) that builds capacity through the provision of technical assistance, best practice guides, and direct consultation can successfully bridge the gap between injury prevention and control research and the implementation of an evidence-driven, community-based fall prevention program, Stepping On. Evaluation results demonstrating the effectiveness of the Stepping On program are also presented
