Comprehensive Aging Survey

The Comprehensive Aging Survey is a statewide effort to better understand the experiences, needs and priorities of adults age 60 and older. The survey will help shape the future of aging services and supports across the state.

The survey is now closed.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the survey. We also appreciate the assistance of partners across the state who helped promote the survey.

Who conducted the survey?

The Minnesota Board on Aging, Age-Friendly Minnesota and DHS Aging and Adult Services Division developed the survey in partnership with Minnesota’s Area Agencies on Aging, MMB Long-Range Planning and the Center for Healthy Aging and Innovation at the University of Minnesota.

We hired Vital Research, a nationally recognized, community-driven research and evaluation company, to conduct the survey.
