The ACT Government is seeking your feedback on the draft Strategic Plan for Positive Ageing, a whole-of-government initiative being developed in partnership with the Ministerial Advisory Council on Ageing and the community and will be holding a public information session on Wednesday 19th August 2009.
Through the Plan the ACT Government aims to respond to the opportunities and challenges presented by an ageing population, to nurture a community where older people are respected and valued, and to support older Canberrans to continue to actively participate. The ACT Government wants to hear from anyone with an interest in ageing issues about whether the draft Plan addresses your concerns and meets your expectations.
Public information session:
When: Wednesday 19 August 2009 (10.00am – 12.00pm)
Where: Southern Cross Club, 92-96 Corinna Street, Phillip
