State care planning councils are nonprofit alliances of community care providers and advisers who join together to help the public deal with current elder care needs. State councils provide a platform for local groups of providers and advisors to offer the following services:

• Educate the public on how to plan for long term care
• Provide a local source of 15 to 20 different eldercare services through one single state contact
• Promote a trusted organization offering reliable services

During the year, the National Care Planning Council will begin organizing state care planning councils across the country.  Currently we have operational councils in the states of Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, & Washington.
