SUMMARY
San Diego's population of people over 65 years of age is expected to increase by two-thirds within the next 15 years and will comprise 20% of the overall county population. In order to support those aging in our community, it is important the City of Chula Vista address safe and affordable housing, transportation for those unable to continue driving, as well as opportunities for older adults to remain involved and engaged in their communities. To further our efforts to serve the growing needs of older adults and all our citizenry, the City has an opportunity to join the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities and accept a $50,000 grant from the San Diego Foundation towards the effort.
