The California Commission on Aging (CCoA)
CCoA works with legislators, state agencies, and nonprofit organizations to educate, advocate and collaborate on issues impacting older adults. The Commission is identified in statute as the principal advocacy body for older Californians.
Our Vision
All Californians can age with dignity, security, and purpose.
Our Mission
To serve as the principal advocacy body for older Californians and a catalyst for change that supports and celebrates Californians as they age.
California’s 60+ population is growing at an unprecedented rate
From 2010-2060 the number of Californias over age 60 will double from 6 million to 14.7 million. This demographic shift touches everything: healthcare capacity, housing affordability, workforce planning, long term care, and economic security. Without proactive policy and investment today, California risks being unprepared for a future that is already arriving. The California Commission on Aging is committed to ensuring older Californians can age with dignity, security, and purpose — and that starts with treating this moment as the urgent priority it is.
Together, let’s amplify our voices and advocate for policy priorities that enhance older Californians’ health, safety, autonomy, choice, and dignity.
We look forward to continuing this journey together.
