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!
