The Ford County Commissioners are soliciting volunteers to represent the county’s older population on the South West Kansas Area Agency On Aging’s Sub-Region Council.

The purpose of the council is to assist SWKAAA in determining the needs of senior citizens in Ford County and southwest Kansas, and to help them develop a coordinated and comprehensive plan to address those needs with the funding that has been provided.

The type of individual we are looking for can be a businessperson in the community, someone in the health profession, a home health care provider, caregiver, or a retired individual, who would have some knowledge of the needs of older people in the county.
