Age Wave Leadership Meeting Save the Date:
May 10 at 9:30 am - 11 am

Working to make the Richmond region a great place for all people to grow old.

Picture
The Greater Richmond Age Wave Coalition comprises public and private organizations, businesses, and community members working together to make the Richmond region a great place for all people to grow old. More than 150 regional stakeholders have come together as a catalyst to support this mission.
 
The Greater Richmond Age Wave Readiness Plan provides a map of components essential to preparing for the challenges and opportunities of our demographic shift by defining the goals, indicators, objectives and strategies to achieve an inclusive community.  The Plan provides a tool for strategic planning coordinating efforts, achieving economies of scale and measuring progress. 
 
The strategic effort to implement the Plan is led by the Age Wave Leadership Committee and by four category-specific action teams.  Broad goals established for the Age Wave initiative include:

  • Create opportunities to educate the public about needs of older adults and the effects of anticipated population changes
  • Seek input on a broad range of community needs, assets, and solutions
  • Bring together and join with other stakeholders to achieve a concentration of interest in jointly-developed community goals
  • Prioritize strategies, developed in the completed Plan, that prepare for the projected growth of the region’s older adult population
  • Establish baselines to measure achievement of goals and drive plan updates
