Box 8181 <br /> Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Dear Chair Price: <br /> The Orange County Advisory Board on Aging requests that Jeff Charles, Richard White, <br /> Jennifer (Jenny) Womack,James Harris and Jerry Gregory be considered for re- <br /> appointment to the Advisory Board on Aging. <br /> All of these individuals have been outstanding members of the board and are actively <br /> engaged in the implementation of the Master Aging Plan. Although the Board has not <br /> officially met during the pandemic,these individuals are continuing their work through <br /> virtual quarterly MAP workgroup meetings. Dr.White also serves as the Orange County <br /> delegate to the Senior Tar Heel Legislature and serves on the TJCOG-Area Agency on <br /> Aging Advisory Board. <br /> We recognize that we have three other vacancies and are actively engaged in recruitment <br /> to expand the diversity on the board, including representation from the Asian community. <br /> This is important as we kick-off the planning year for 2022-27 Master Aging Plan, as this <br /> plan will focus on cross-cutting aging issues and responding to older adults from racial and <br /> ethnic minority populations. <br /> Thank you for your consideration of this request. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Janice Tyler, Secretary <br /> Orange County Advisory Board on Aging <br /> Visit us online @ www.orangecountync.gov/departments/aging <br /> Like us on Facebook @ www.facebook.com/orangeCountyDepartmentOnAging <br />
