Advisory Council on Aging

The Advisory Council on Aging advises the Riverside County Office on Aging and the Riverside County Board of Supervisors on issues affecting older adults and adults with disabilities, as well as their caregivers and family members.  Issues the Council focuses on includes older adult nutrition, technology, health, education, employment, housing, transportation, recreation, and finance. 

The Council consists of 17 Riverside County volunteers.  Five councilmembers are appointed by each District Supervisor Office and the remaining members are selected by the Council.  Members take on the role of community liaisons and assist the Office on Aging with community engagement, advocacy, outreach, and Area Plan feedback.

The Advisory Council holds ten general meetings per year from September through June. Meetings are held the second Wednesday of each active month from 10 AM to 12 PM. All Advisory Council meetings are open to the public.

Apply to Join Our Council!

The Advisory Council on Aging is a dedicated group of volunteers made up of Riverside County residents from diverse backgrounds. The Council seeks to build a membership reflective of the County's population demographics and to include individuals eligible for older adult services, low-income individuals, representatives of healthcare and social service providers, local elected officials, veterans, and members of historically underrepresented groups. 

Council members are expected to actively participate in meetings, join Council committees, serve as community ambassadors, and fulfill reporting and administrative duties. Upon their appointment, Advisory Council Members commit to serving the Council for a three-year term.
