Standing with older South Australians.
COTA SA stands with older South Australians to create new images and expectations for our older years — boldly reframing the way we age.
Our strategic plan charts our course for the future and drives how we put our vision and purpose into action.
Our Vision
Ageing in Australia is a time of possibility, opportunity and influence.
Our Purpose
We advance the rights, interests and futures of South Australians as we age.
Our Values
Respect — We respect and value the contribution and lived experience of South Australians as they age and support each person’s right to make choices and to participate in their community.
Diversity — We value the great diversity that characterises South Australians of all ages and are committed to genuine exchange and engagement with older people.
Equity — We are aware of and committed to reducing the impact of inequality, disadvantage and discrimination on South Australians as they age.
Collaboration — We work collaboratively with older people, with our COTA colleagues, with our partners, and with the South Australian community to achieve the vision and purpose of COTA SA.
Integrity — We operate ethically, openly, honestly and with accountability in all our interactions.
Independence — We understand the value and trust that older people and the community place on our independence as the voice reflecting and representing older South Australians.
