City of San Leandro | Age-Friendly Action Plan <br />Page 2 <br />Dear San Leandro Community, <br />It is with great pleasure that we present to you the Action Plan for the Age <br />Friendly Initiative. Our Action Plan is a roadmap of recommendations to <br />make our city livable for older adults as well as intergenerational <br />households. It is a living document, our guide and our vision for the future. It <br />tells a beautiful and vibrant story of where we are at present and where we <br />would like to be. The future looks bright! <br />After our successful achievement in involvement with opening of the Senior <br />Community Center in 2010 and the Center for Elders’ Independence (PACE <br />Program) in 2018, we embarked on our next project of creating an <br />Age-Friendly Initiative in late 2018. Age-Friendly Initiative is our Senior <br />Commission’s effort to work collaboratively with the City Staff and our <br />residents. <br />The Letter of Consent to begin the Age-Friendly Initiative was given by our <br />former Mayor Pauline Russo Cutter, and we were admitted in the WHO/AARP <br />Network in November of 2021. Thanks to the unstinted support from the <br />present Mayor Juan González III, the City Council and the City Staff we have <br />been able to make great strides in coming so far to present our Action Plan. <br />We are appreciative of their support. <br />The City Council proclaimed San Leandro an age-friendly city on November 11, <br />2023 and again on November 7, 2024. In addition, the November 7, 2024 <br />Proclamation is deposited in the 2072 Time Capsule. We owe our successful <br />journey of this project to former and present Senior Commissioners. <br />We welcome your participation in implementing the San Leandro <br />Age-Friendly Action Plan. <br />Respectfully, <br />Chair Janice Woycheshin, District 3 Vice Chair Bella Comelo, District 6 <br />Victor Aparicio, At-Large, District 5 Marci Dillon, At-Large, District 1 <br />Debra Lopez Nacario, District 1 Claudia McHenry, District 5 <br />Adrienne Miller, District 4 Rosemary Picado, District 2 <br />Welcome
