Provide Your Input on the National Plan on Aging

July 11, 2024

The Interagency Coordinating Committee on Healthy Aging and Age-Friendly Communities (ICC) is developing a National Plan on Aging. This initiative, authorized by the Older Americans Act and funded in 2023, aims to create recommendations addressing key issues facing older Americans. The ICC has released a Strategic Framework for the National Plan on Aging, focusing on four main areas:

  • Age-Friendly Communities
  • Coordinated Housing and Support Services
  • Increased Access to Long-Term Services and Supports
  • Aligned Health Care and Supportive Services

The ICC is now seeking feedback from individuals, older adults, and organizations to ensure the National Plan reflects diverse community needs. Your input can help represent the perspectives of older adults, including those facing economic and social challenges. The ICC is working with the National Plan on Aging Community Engagement Collaborative, which includes West Health, The SCAN Foundation, and The John A. Hartford Foundation.

How to Participate

Complete an online questionnaire about the Strategic Framework. It’s available in English and Spanish. Consider sharing with others who might be interested in contributing. Please submit your feedback by September 15, 2024. Your participation can help shape policies that will affect older Americans. Whether you’re an older adult, a caregiver, or someone interested in age-friendly policies, your input is valuable.  To learn more about the Strategic Framework and access the survey, click here.
