Seniors (age 60 or older), professionals who work with seniors, and advocates for seniors or aging-related issues are invited to apply.

S&DS provides all of Lane County with a wide range of publicly funded services for older adults and people with disabilities. Council members advise S&DS on services and programs, and they advocate on senior topics.

The council also advises S&DS on its annual area plan, budget, and other administrative matters. The council holds hybrid meetings every other month (in person and online).
