堪萨斯州签行政令启动十年养老总规划 多部门协同应对老龄化
堪萨斯州州长凯利（Laura Kelly）9月29日在2026年州长养老大会开幕当天签署第26-06号行政令，责成该州老龄与残障服务厅（KDADS）牵头，联合各州级机构、利益相关方与公众，共同制定一份为期十年的「多部门养老计划」。这份跨部门蓝图将涵盖医疗与心理健康、长期照护、住房、交通、经济保障、劳动力、家庭照护者支持、社会参与、应急准备与友善老年社区等议题，目标是让年长居民能在自己生活的社区里有尊严、独立而有联系地安享晚年。凯利表示，堪萨斯正在老去，必须跨部门提前规划。养老厅长霍华德指出，行政令为既有的「友善老年堪萨斯」等工作提供了明确授权。会议为期两天，在堪萨斯大学会议中心举行，并首次颁发了以资深老龄事务官员命名的公共服务奖。对于在堪萨斯照顾年迈父母的华人家庭，这项规划涉及的照护与住房安排值得持续关注。该计划与联邦已批准的2026至2029年堪萨斯州养老计划相衔接，该州此前也参加了由医疗策略中心牵头的全国多部门养老学习协作网络，借鉴其他州的规划经验。（来源：堪萨斯州州长办公室）
Kansas Governor Signs Executive Order Launching a 10-Year Multi-Sector Plan on Aging
Kansas Governor Laura Kelly signed Executive Order 26-06 on September 29, the opening day of the 2026 Kansas Governor's Conference on Aging, directing the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services (KDADS) to lead state agencies, stakeholders and the public in developing a 10-year Multi-Sector Plan on Aging. The cross-sector blueprint will cover health and behavioral health care, long-term services and supports, housing, transportation, economic security, workforce, caregiver support, social connection, emergency preparedness and age-friendly communities, with the goal of helping older Kansans live with dignity, independence and connection in the communities they call home. Kelly said Kansas is aging and must plan across agencies and sectors. KDADS Secretary Howard said the order provides a clear mandate connecting existing efforts such as Age-Friendly Kansas and the federally approved 2026-2029 State Plan on Aging. The two-day conference was held at the University of Kansas Conference Center and featured the first presentation of a public service award named for a longtime aging-services official.
