Survey targets area seniors
Toolbox
Published: November 2, 2009
The Southwestern Vermont Council on Aging is preparing to develop its Area Plan, which will guide activity during the period 2010 through 2014.
SVCOA, in partnership with Vermont's other Area Agencies on Aging, has developed a brief survey designed to help gather information about senior needs and the needs of those who care for seniors.
