Commission on Aging taking comments on updated Aging Readiness Plan

The Clark County Aging Readiness Plan assesses the county’s readiness to serve as a home for a growing number of older residents. The plan was approved in 2012 and includes strategies to improve the community’s capacity to support its growing older population and ultimately benefit all ages.

The Commission on Aging implements the Aging Readiness Plan and initiated an update to the plan in fall of 2022. The update addresses changes in the last 10 years, updates the data and maps in the document, and incorporates new technologies and services. The plan update also adds a new health and safety chapter, focusing on emergency preparedness, a topic that is not currently covered in the existing plan.
