"An Act extending the Alaska Commission on Aging."

HB 394 extends the sunset date for the Alaska Commission on Aging until June 30, 2008. An audit dated October 1, 2003, recommends this extension.

The mission of the Alaska Commission on Aging (ACOA) is to ensure dignity and independence for Alaska's seniors and to assist them, through programs and services funded by the Commission, to lead useful and meaningful lives.

The Commission is charged with planning, advocacy, and interagency coordination on senior citizen issues.

Extending the Commission's sunset will allow Alaska's Senior Citizens to continue benefiting from these valuable services.
