Did the 2020 CZU Lightning Complex Fires or the 2023 Winter Storm disasters impact your home?

If so, the Office of Response, Recovery & Resilience (OR3) wants to hear from you. Take a few moments to share your feedback on the rebuild process and the NEW financial recovery support resources via OR3's anonymous survey. Your insights will help the County better understand the barriers and improve its ability to support your recovery goals.

The County of Santa Cruz’s Human Services Department has developed a Master Plan for Aging in partnership with the Seniors Council and local cities. The effort is called “Age Well Santa Cruz County.”

The State of California developed a Master Plan for Aging (MPA) that was released in 2021. The MPA is a 10-year blueprint for advancing a California for all ages and abilities. Individual counties, including Santa Cruz County, are now creating local MPAs to ensure people of all ages and abilities in their communities are engaged, valued, and afforded equitable opportunities to thrive as they age, how and where they choose.

To initiate Age Well Santa Cruz County, a local survey is available to collect community feedback focused on aging in the county. Results from the survey will inform the local MPA’s goals. 

The survey will be available online from January 8 to March 31, 2024. For more information about the Master Plan for aging contact AgeWell@santacruzcountyca.gov or (831) 454-4397.
