In June of 2019, Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order calling for the creation of a Master Plan for Aging. This order affirmed the priority of health and well-being of older Californians and the need for polices that promote healthy aging. The Master Plan for Aging is not only a plan for older adults, but instead, a blueprint for Californians across the lifespan. This plan outlines 5 bold goals, 23 strategies, a data dashboard on Aging and a local playbook to drive partners to help us build an age-friendly California by 2030.
The 5 goals include:
Goal 1: Housing for All Stages & Ages
Goal 2: Health Reimagined
Goal 3: Inclusion & Equity, Not Isolation
Goal 4: Caregiving that Works
Goal 5: Affording Aging
