Minister for Community Services, Roger Jaensch, said the Respectful, Age-friendly Island: Older Tasmanians’ Action Plan 2025 – 2029 ensures Tasmanians can age in the way they want to.
The Plan includes actions to progress Lifelong Respect: Tasmania’s Strategy to end the abuse of older people 2023 -2029.
“The Tasmanian Government has committed over $3 million to deliver key priorities to support older Tasmanians and end the abuse of older people over the next two years,” Minister Jaensch said.
The Plan has been informed by extensive consultation with the community, through the Council on the Ageing Tasmania, on what active ageing means to them.
“Older Tasmanians are integral to the diversity and strength of our communities, and we will continue to work collaboratively with all levels of Government, COTA Tas, community sector organisations, and the wider community to achieve the vision in our Plan,” Minister Jaensch said.
