The Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA) seeks public input to assist with determining the needs of elders in Florida to better inform our state planning process. The State Plan on Aging is a strategic plan that establishes goals, objectives, and strategies for the Department and its Aging Network partners in working to provide cost-effective, high quality services to Florida’s older adults, adults with disabilities, and their caregivers.
