OC wants older adults to share their opinions

NEEDS ASSESSMENT

Orange County and Advance OC are conducting a countywide older adult needs assessment to guide the development of plans and services for older adults.

The survey results will help guide the development of a Master Plan for Aging that will focus on the needs of the county’s older adults.

The survey is anonymous. People are not required to provide their name, address, email, or any other identifying information.

People will be asked for opinions on services already offered and others that might still be needed.

To access the survey, visit www.olderadultssurvey. com or call 949-4156898. Orange County is home to 450,000 adults aged 65 and older.

The number of older adults is expected to increase, even as all other age group populations are expected to decrease.
