What is the Missouri Plan on Aging?

By 2034, Missouri is projected to have more residents over age 65 than under age 18, a demographic shift driving the creation of the Master Plan on Aging. This initiative, also known as the “Aging with Dignity” plan, provides a strategic framework to transform the state's services for its rapidly aging population. The comprehensive 10-year plan aims to coordinate efforts across government agencies and stakeholders to ensure older adults can age safely and with independence.
