County Executive Dan Benson and the Mercer County Office on Aging are asking adults aged 60 years or older, as well as their caregivers, to complete the county’s 2024 Needs Assessment survey.
The Assessment plays a critical role in collecting responses from seniors to determine the needs in the aging community. Responses will be incorporated into the Office on Aging’s annual Area Plan Contract.
Adults, caregivers, and others who work with the older adult population, can complete the survey by visiting https://www.mercercounty.org/departments/human-services/aging-disability-resource-connection/office-on-aging/office-on-aging-needs-assessment-survey#!/ or by scanning the QR code below.
Residents are encouraged to submit their responses by September 30, so that they may be considered in next year’s Area Plan.
For more information, or if you require a paper copy of the Needs Assessment, email adrc@mercercounty.org or call 609-989-6661. The webpage also provides a printable PDF of the survey.
“Government works best when our residents are active partners in our decision-making process,” said County Executive Dan Benson. “The more residents that fill out the survey, the better the information available to our Office on Aging staff as they work to meet the ever-changing needs of Mercer County’s seniors.”
