ABOUT US
The Aging Services Collaborative (ASC) is a growing network of advocates for seniors and the disabled. We truly make an impact by providing a voice within our community. It is through our collective power and commitment that we will impact policy-makers, the media, foundations, and our community leaders. We create a collective voice and share a positive message moving us toward a progressive and thoughtful Senior Policy Agenda.
​
The ASC is a proud member of the Community of Constituents, a statewide movement of more than 700 member organizations with an additional 850 affiliated members working together to transform the system of care so that all Californians can age with dignity, choice, and independence.
