Comment on the Draft Area Plan on Aging, 2008-2011

The draft Area Plan on Aging, 2008-2011 and related documents are now available on the Seattle-King County AAA web site.

We invite you to provide comment on our draft Area Plan and the recommended service area discretionary allocations by attending one of three public hearings, or by submitting comments in writing. The Area Plan serves as the framework for our work as an Area Agency on Aging and establishes our major goals and objectives for the next four years. 

As you review the draft plan, please consider the following questions:

• Have we presented the right issue areas?
• Have we overlooked potential partnership opportunities?
• Is there anything that needs further development or clarification?
• Do you have any suggestions for changes in the allocations?
