JPA

The Joint Powers Authority Board of Directors is designated by the State of California as the governing body of the Area Agency on Aging. This ensures the development of a variety of social and nutritional services designed to maximize the independence for the older individual.

The Board meets regularly the 1st Thursday of every month. For specific times and places, please check the JPA Meetings page on this website.

Advisory Council

The A12AA Advisory Council consists of 30 members appointed by the Board of Supervisors in each county, who contribute many volunteer hours serving on community and task forces, visiting grantee agencies in an effort to learn first hand what services are being provided, and working closely with the Area Agency on Aging Director and staff on matters of senior legislation, local program funding distribution and the agency's overall direction and goals.

The Council is strengthened by the diversity of its membership. All five counties are represented, thus broadening the Council's capacity to serve and benefit the entire senior population of Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, Mariposa and Tuolumne Counties.

Advisory Council members discuss senior issues, plan and recommend agency direction and educate the community through monthly meetings and public hearings.

The Advisory Council meets regularly the 3rd Monday of every month. For specific times and places, please check the Advisory Council Meetings page on this website.
