Area Plan
What is the Area Plan?
Click on the image above to open the 2024–2027 Area Plan.
Every four years, Aging and Disability Services and other Area Agencies on Aging around the country develop an Area Plan as a response to the needs in our communities. The Area Plan is the roadmap we follow to further our vision of a community where people thrive at every stage of life. It describes the function of Aging and Disability Services as the local Area Agency on Aging, presents relevant demographic trends, and outlines the major goals and objectives to be achieved over the course of four years.
Each Area Agency on Aging also prepares a biennial update. Plans and updates for Seattle-King County are submitted to the State Unit on Aging, part of the DSHS Home and Community Living Administration (HCLA), which in turn files a State Plan on Aging with the federal Administration on Aging, all part of the Aging Network authorized by the Older Americans Act of 1965.

What’s Happening Now?
Our Area Plan for 2027-2030 will be developed over the next year. We are currently gathering feedback from the community to inform priorities.
Aging is our future. Let’s plan it together!

A draft Plan will be released Summer 2026 for public comment. The information gathered now will be used to inform priorities in the draft.
Whether you’re an older adult, person with a disability, a service provider, a caregiver, or someone who cares — your input helps us understand how we can make our community a better place to grow up and grow old. Your feedback helps shape services like outreach, meals, transportation, caregiver support, and more.
