Central Vermont Council on Aging (CVCOA) Survey of Needs of Older
Central Vermonters

CVCOA is developing a new plan that will guide us for the next four years. The FY 2022-2025 Area Plan will outline our goals, strategies, and areas of focus to meet the needs of older adults (60 and older) in our service area.

We are seeking feedback from older Vermonters, family caregivers, community partners, town leaders, healthcare providers, and other interested parties. We ask you to take a few minutes to complete our short survey. Your input is important to CVCOA in our planning.
