Livable La Mesa - Community Action Planning Session

What Is Livable La Mesa?
Livable La Mesa is a project through AARP’s Livable Communities Initiative, with support from The San Diego Foundation Age-Friendly Communities (AFC) Program. This initiative is an affiliate of the World Health Organization’s Global Network of Age-Friendly Cities and Communities, an international effort launched in 2006 to help cities prepare for their own and
the world’s growing population of older adults.

Over the course of the next year, and with input from the La Mesa residents, the Livable La Mesa project will prepare a plan to help make La Mesa a community for all ages. AARP’s Network of AFCs targets improvements in eight domains that influence the health and quality of life of older adults. The livability domains include Outdoor Spaces & Building, Transportation, Housing, Social Participation, Respect & Social Inclusion, Civic Participation,
Communication & Information, Community Support & Health Services. After collecting feedback through a community survey and a series of community conversations, La Mesa residents prioritized the following domain topics for the La Mesa AFC Action Plan:
