A Community for All Ages

The Age-Friendly Action Plan is a living document compiled from many resources, including existing data, multiple surveys, focus groups, and input from community partners. Over the next few years, we welcome your ideas and suggestions as we work together to develop activities to meet our collective goals.

The Florida Department of Health in Sarasota became the nation's first local health department to achieve recognition as an Age-Friendly Public Health System by Trust for America’s Health (TFAH).

The AFPHS Recognition Program is designed to encourage and support state and local health departments to embrace their role in improving and supporting older adult health.
