In January 2023, the Orange County Board of Supervisors commissioned a comprehensive, countywide older adults needs assessment. The assessment will consider input from older adults, people with disabilities, caregivers, community organizations, and existing programs and service providers servicing those age 60 and older. The information gathered will help the County understand the holistic needs of the aging population and seek a better understanding of the areas of greatest need, identifying barriers to accessing services, and more precisely identify gaps in services. Additionally, this effort will guide the development of the County’s Master Plan for Aging.
The survey concluded on December 31, 2023. Analysis of the collected data is ongoing, and further updates will be provided soon.
