The Clark County Aging Readiness task force hosted five workshops from September 2010 through May 2011.  The workshops were held to assess our community's current situation and seek public ideas and professional expertise on our future needs.

The results of the workshops will help the task force develop an Aging Readiness Plan to prepare Clark County for the aging boom and keep our community livable for residents of all ages.
