Area Implementation Plan

The Area Agency on Aging 1-B (AAA 1-B) has developed the DRAFT Fiscal Year 2014-16 Area Implementation Plan (AIP). The Plan indicates how federal Older Americans Act and state funds will be utilized to support community-based services for older adults in Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair, and Washtenaw counties starting in Fiscal Year 2014 (October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2014).

This plan was developed with input gathered at five community forums held around the region in early 2013.  A synopsis of the forums and county specific reports on these forums can be found on the 2013 Community Forums page. 

Two public hearings are scheduled in May for the public to comment and provide feedback on the draft plan.  A downloadable flyer is included for distribution.   Anyone is welcome to attend, but registration is requested to adixon@aaa1b.com   The hearings are scheduled as follows:
