Abstract
Results of a health education program at a life care community show that a relationship exists between older adults acquiring knowledge about the aging process and choosing behaviors that reduce the effects of aging in their own lives. A description of this program, which is based on Knowles' theory of androgogy, is provided as a model for other health education programs for older adults.Keywords
