Senior Citizens

This webpage was created by the Summit on Aging Committee. The committee's goal is to provide senior citizens with information and connections to local resources. The committee invites the public to attend  meetings and share ideas. The committee is also looking for residents over the age of 55 to join in helping Doylestown Township become a more elder friendly community.

Mission Statement:

“To distribute accurate information and develop open communications within the Senior population with local, county, state and federal government agencies that will create awareness of security, health/wellness and other issues that will enhance the quality of life of Central Bucks Seniors.” 

 

Transportation Survey of Bucks County Residents Age 55+

Help your community!  The Bucks County Area Agency on Aging is conducting a survey of Bucks County residents age 55+ to determine the transportation and mobility needs and issues throughout the county.   “Recommendations from this survey, which will be conducted between the beginning of February and March 15, will form the agenda for a conference tentatively scheduled for the fall of 2008.  The conference will explore ideas to enhance transportation and mobility options for older residents of our county. All  residents who have reached the age of 55 are urged to participate in this important research.

The Transportation and Mobility Survey also will form part of the basis of a report to be compiled by the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) to identify transportation and service options, unmet needs and provide priority recommendations to meet these needs. T

The confidential survey requests no identifying information. It is available through the Bucks County AAA (215-348-0510), at the county’s 12 senior community centers, and online through the county Web site, www.BucksCounty.org. Simply click on the stop sign icon on the main page. 

Take the survey … Help your community!
