Aging Services Environmental Scan
February, 2001

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This report is a collaborative effort between Travis County Health & Human Services and Veterans Service, the United Way/Capital Area, St. David's Foundation and the Community Action Network. This report was produced under the guidance of the Aging Services Environmental Scan Committee - a dedicated group of volunteers committed to improving the conditions for older adults. Travis County Health & Human Services and Veterans Service's Research and Planning Division conducted the majority of the research and wrote this report with assistance from the United Way/Capital Area and numerous individuals within the community.

We attempted to include all those who had a part in this undertaking, but if we have inadvertently omitted anyone, we apologize and ask that you inform us so that we may recognize you appropriately as the process continues. Thank you for your contribution and support of this community project.
