The Bucks County Area Agency on Aging (AAA) will host listening sessions for the PA Department of Agingโ€™s development of the Master Plan for Older Adults โ€“ a 10-year, state-led and stakeholder-driven strategic plan designed to help transform the infrastructure and coordination of services for older Pennsylvanians.

The master plan will also reflect the needs and preferences of this population to live where they choose and access the supports they need to thrive and age in place. 

Listening sessions are scheduled for the following dates:

  • 6 p.m. Sept. 13; Pennridge Community Center, Perkasie
  • 12 p.m. Sept. 14; Bensalem Senior Center, Bensalem
  • 9 a.m. Sept. 15; Benjamin Wilson Senior Activity Center, Warminster

Stakeholders, older adults and people living with disabilities, their families, caregivers and community leaders are invited to hear an overview of the plan, its core principles, and why such a plan is needed for Pennsylvania. There will be opportunities for those in attendance to provide comments and input on the plan.
