To deal more effectively with this challenge and opportunity, innovative executive and legislative intent has recently been expressed and coordinated by the state's Committee on Aging. This article reviews key aspects of Florida's large and growing elderly population and presents policy recommendations and strategies for pathways to the future in Florida.
