The Network On Aging supports healthy aging in the community by promoting awareness of needs and resources that help older adults through life’s transitions and through systematic outreach, regional collaboration and community involvement. To do so, the board must:
- Effectively serve older adults in Bellevue
- Communicate older adult needs and provide a forum for that communication
- Strengthen community outreach to inform and connect older adults with necessary resources
- Create a unified voice for older adults in Bellevue
- Create an environment that makes Bellevue a community where older adults can age in place, a great place to grow up and grow old.
- Gain respect and knowledge of older adults in Bellevue
- Set the standard in the region for older adult services through an annual forum of regional senior services providers
- Create a regional approach to serving older adults
