The Council provides leadership and advocacy on behalf of older persons and serves as a channel of communication and information on aging.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The Advisory Council on Aging consists of forty members serving two-year staggered terms, each ending on September 30. The Council consists of representatives of the target population and the general public, including older low-income and military persons; at least one-half of the membership must be made up of actual consumers of services under the Area Plan.

The Council includes: nineteen representatives recommended from each Local Committee on Aging, one representative from the Nutrition Project Council, and twenty at-large representatives.

There are currently twenty-nine seats filled on the Advisory Council on Aging and eleven vacancies. These vacant seats include: Local Committee Pinole, Local Committee Richmond, Local Committee Pittsburg, Local Committee Martinez, Local Committee Oakley, and Member-At-Large seats 6, 8, 14, 16, 17, and 19.

The recommended appointees were selected by the Contra Costa Advisory Council on Aging and approved by the Family and Human Services Committee on September 24, 2018.

Seats will remain or become vacant.
