HBCOA What's New

HBCOA at the forefront of aging issues

Officially recognized by the City Council of Huntington Beach as representing its local senior citizens, the HBCOA was awarded non-profit status in 1973 and has always been at the forefront of aging issues. During the design stage of the new Senior Center in Central Park, the City Council directed the HBCOA to provide input related to the overall design of the new center.

Message, Information & Updates

We are deeply appreciative of our ability to support the senior center to provide critical services, programs, information, and educational resources that empower Huntington Beach's older adults to live well and age well. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to our HBCOA members, dedicated volunteers, community partners, and generous donors. Your ongoing support is the foundation of everything we achieve. We are equally thankful for the commitment and hard work of our senior center staff.

If you are not yet a member, volunteer, or donor, I invite you to become part of our community.

Your HBCOA President, Carolyn Ross 

President’s Message

Season's Greetings from all of us at the HBCOA!

As we welcome December and the holiday season, I want to take a moment to reflect on what has been an incredible journey as your Board President over the past two years. It has been my honor to serve this wonderful
community and witness firsthand the dedication of our volunteers, staff, and members who make
the HBCOA such a vital resource for older adults in our community. The connections we've built and the impact we've made together have been truly meaningful and will stay with me always. As we close out 2025, I'm reminded of how much we've accomplished together and how grateful I am for each of you. Your membership not only provides valuable discounts and access to the Outlook, but it also supports essential transportation and social services, programs, and special events that make a real difference in people's lives. Whether you're a current member considering a Bronze, Silver, or Gold membership, or someone thinking about joining for the first time, your support truly matters. Whether you're celebrating at home, traveling to be with family, or joining us at the center for our holiday events, I wish you moments of joy, peace, and connection this season. With gratitude and warm wishes for a wonderful holiday season and a happy new year

Carolyn Ross - Board President, Huntington Beach Council on Aging
