Hallandale Beach developed its action plan to address the mobility, housing, social and economic conditions that affect older adults in the community. The plan is designed to focus on improving livability for older residents and promoting aging in place through the four main focus areas of creating attractive and safe neighborhoods; fostering health and well-being for all residents; building better transportation systems that promote mobility and accessibility; and establishing a more welcoming community.

Hallandale Beach's progress report focuses on housing, mobility, health and social connections. The city has established programs to assist older adults with emergency, affordable housing and utility assistance. The initiative offers residents various programs to support home maintenance for residents, including: ADA accessible ramps, paint programs, and the Replacement Home Program (RHP). The report also highlights efforts to promote safety and community-based crime prevention programs, greater opportunities for more walkable, bikeable, and transit-supportive complete streets with mixed-use developments, and age-friendly accessibility, activities and programming at neighborhood parks. Finally, Hallandale Beach has promoted opportunities for healthy living activities throughout the city, i.e. health screenings at public locations, healthy living self-management and prevention programs, and awareness among COAs, HOAs, and businesses of existing opportunities for healthy living.
