Project Description:
The goal of this project is to assess the needs of current older adults defined as persons 60 years of age and older, caregivers to older adults and persons who will be approaching 60 years of age within the next 10 years in order to identify current and projected needs of these populations. In addition, AgeOptions is serving an array of ethnicities, languages, and cultures. As such, there is a need to learn more about the needs of these diverse populations that should impact the service delivery system. In light of the changing landscape of AgeOptions suburban Cook County constituents, there is a need to know more for the present, as well as the planning to meet the needs, wants and desires for the future.
