Background on Area Plan on Aging & Older Americans Act
The Older Americans Act of 1965 established the first national initiative aimed at providing services to older adults. The Older Americans Act states that each Area Agency is responsible for developing an Area Plan every four year period that describes the needs of the community, past initiatives, and future goals and activities for the upcoming years.
The 2017-2020 Area Plan demonstrated that the population of older adults is growing quickly in Multnomah County with East and Mid service area district populations increasing the most. The plan prioritized connecting, collaborating, and serving communities of color and other marginalized and underserved populations.
