Master Plan for Aging Listening Session-Johnson City-Virtual-Thursday, November 9, 2023
On behalf of Governor Kathy Hochul, the NYS Department of Health and the NYS Office for the Aging would like to invite you to a New York Master Plan for Aging (MPA) Listening Session on November 9, 2023. The Listening Session provides the public a chance to give their input and details the efforts that the state—through philanthropic, academic, private, and local partnerships—is taking toward becoming the most age- and disability-friendly state in the nation. The goal of the MPA is advancing transformative and cross-cutting strategies to address issues that all New Yorkers encounter within their lifetimes—and to do so with a sustained focus on ensuring equity in aging and disability.
Governor Hochul signed Executive Order 23 in November 2022, calling for the development of a Master Plan for Aging with the goals of improving the lives of today’s older New Yorkers and people with disabilities and building a better system of care and more inclusive communities for tomorrow. We have built momentum since last November and are inviting the public to join this critical effort.
