In 2001, the Arizona Legislature created the Interagency Council on Long Term Care. The purpose of the Council was "to help the state achieve a coordinated long term care services delivery system." Additionally, the Council was required to "define this state's long term care obligations by coordinating applicable state and federal mandates that relate to long term care services." After ten years in operation, the Council has met its intended goals and sunsets on June 30, 2011. The final report provides a brief background and highlights the major activities of the Council.
