CARY, N.C. (AP) - Gov.-elect Bev Perdue's incoming administration held the first of its public meetings to get input on important issues by focusing on a topic close to Perdue's heart.
About 40 advocates and state regulators met Wednesday in Cary to discuss how North Carolina can do a better job providing assistance to elderly residents.
The group is one of 14 meeting over the next week on topics ranging from transportation to mental health. The groups will make recommendations to the governor-elect by early December.
Perdue did not attend the meeting in Cary. She used to work as a geriatric consultant and services director at a New Bern hospital.
The number of people age 65 or older in North Carolina in 2030 will be more than double the total in 2000.
