The Area Plan provides the format and structure to identify and document needs and addresses concerns in a manner consistent with the Older Americans Act and the Older Californians Act to enable communities and the AAA to plan for the future. The AAA is charged with addressing and planning for a broad spectrum of matters related to older individuals and adults with disabilities.

The AAA is mandated to complete strategic plans in four year planning cycles. The Area Plan is intended to accurately reflect AAAs future activities by involving and serving older individuals, their families, and caregivers. It provides the format and structure to identify and document needs and addresses concerns in a manner consistent with the Older Americans Act (OAA) and the Older Californians Act (OCA) to enable communities and AAAs to plan for the future.
