Fund Distribution Use funding policies to build capacity for effective community services across the seven-county region; balance the needs of low-income and minority seniors and seniors living in each county; leverage community resources; and respond to emerging needs. Systems Change Convene providers, community leaders, and consumers to facilitate improvements in service delivery and systems integration; and develop services that address priority needs of seniors and their families in the region. Capacity Building Provide technical assistance to increase individual agencies' capacity to develop or expand priority services. Information and Assistance Provide high quality information, education, and assistance through the Senior LinkAge Line® that meets the needs of seniors and their families and helps them make informed choices about benefits and services. |
