The Voice of Older Tasmanians COTA is a leading advocate and source of trusted information, giving older Tasmanians a voice. COTA Tasmania has been the voice of older Tasmanians for 60 years. While individual issues may have changed over that time, the determination and commitment of the organisation to ensure that the voices of older Tasmanians are heard has not. COTA Tasmania is governed by an elected Board of Directors, dedicated staff and volunteers who continually strive to ensure that the contributions of older people are proudly recognised and acknowledged within our community.
