Accountable to Our Community

The Sourcewise Area Plan is the blueprint for senior needs. It guides our strategic planning, objectives, and goals to better support old adults, caregivers, and adults with disabilities.

The California Department on Aging reviews and approves the Area Plans for all California Area Agencies on Aging, thereby releasing funds to allow these organizations to implement the outlined services and support.
