The Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments plays a vital role in advocating for the needs and concerns of aging adults and their families. Through both direct action and strategic partnerships with organizations like the Regional Advisory Council on Aging and the NC Senior Tar Heel Legislature, the Council works tirelessly to address the unique challenges faced by older adults in the region.
