Area Agency on Aging hosts countywide listening sessions to support older adults
The Area Agency on Aging, a division of Johnson County's Aging and Human Services, is hosting a series of community listening sessions across the county. These sessions are part of an ongoing effort to support older adults and ensure services align with the goals outlined in the agency’s Four‑Year Area Plan on Aging.
The conversations will help evaluate current progress and identify emerging needs within the community. Older adults, caregivers, and all community members are encouraged to attend and share their perspectives. Resident feedback plays a key role in shaping the programs and support systems that many rely on.
