The Age-Friendly Minnesota Council was established through Executive Order 19-38 by Governor Tim Walz in December 2019. The Council works to coordinate, collaborate, and innovate related to aging across state agencies as well as across public and private sectors. It also works to address disparities experienced by older Minnesotans, and to empower local governments and community organizations with tools and resources to become more age-friendly.
The Council’s 15 members, listed below, include representatives of nine state agencies, as well as a Tribal representative, and five community members representing universities, faith communities, age-friendly communities, and others from around the state.
The Age-Friendly Minnesota Council meets every other month, and holds working sessions in intervening months. See more meeting details.
