Aging: Programs and Services for Older Adults

Public review of state aging plan

The new Wisconsin State Plan on Aging for federal fiscal years (FFY) 2026–2028 has been drafted and is now ready for public review.

Every three years, the Department of Health Services (DHS) develops a state plan and submits it to the federal Administration on Aging. The state plan is required for the state to receive federal funding and also helps to structure our priorities, set an agenda for aging services and programs, and explain the financial plan and formulas that allocate program funding.

The draft Wisconsin State Plan on Aging FFY 2026–2028 is available for public review through Sunday, May 25, 2025. To review and provide feedback:

1. Review the state plan narrative and attachments.
   • Draft Wisconsin State Plan on Aging FFY 2026–2028 (PDF)

2. Complete the public review surveys to provide comments on the plan narrative and attachments.
