The Governor’s Advisory Council
on Aging makes recommendations to the Governor and the Secretary
of the Department of Health and Human Services on how to improve
the quality of life of older North Carolinians. The Council is charged
with the responsibility of studying ways and means to (1) promote
public understanding of the problems of the aging, (2) consider the
need for new State programs in the field of aging, and (3) prevent
duplication and overlapping programs for older adults. In fulfillment
of this purpose, the Council shall advise in the development of the
State Plan describing the quality, extent, and scope of services
currently provided or to be provided to older persons in North Carolina.
