2025-2030 Durham Comprehensive Aging Plan
In 2023, AWD convened 5 livability groups to update the 2020 version of the Aging Plan. As each working group developed new definitions and strategies, we realized that instead of an update, we were developing a new Comprehensive Aging Plan.
The 2025-2030 Comprehensive Aging Plan reflects Durham’s assets and priorities now and over the next 5 years. It covers domains of livability:
- Housing
- Social Participation
- Respect & Social Inclusion
- Elder Abuse, Neglect & Exploitation
- Civic Engagement & Employment
- Community Support & Health Services
- Older Adult Hunger & Nutrition
- Outdoor Spaces/Buildings
- Transportation
The 2024-2029 Comprehensive Aging Plan also includes 10 cross-cutting issues. They are:
- Socioeconomic status
- Racial equity
- Sexual orientation and gender identity
- Social support
- Communication, including digital literacy
- Dementia
- Accessibility, in all forms
- Intergenerational opportunities and spaces
- Community safety
- Climate resiliency
The 2025-2030 Durham Comprehensive Aging Plan has been released. We look forward to receiving your feedback about the Plan.
