Agency On Aging of South Central CT

The Agency on Aging is a private nonprofit organization incorporated in 1974 as the "South Central Connecticut Agency on Aging" (SCCAA) and designated as an Area Agency on Aging (AAA), one of five regional AAA's in the state of Connecticut. Each AAA is responsible for planning, coordination, advocacy and allocation of funds to social services and nutrition programs designed to meet the the needs of those age 60 and older. It is run by a volunteer Board of Directors of which at least 50%, or 12 members, whichever is more, must meet the requirements for its client population: that is, age 60 and older. The Agency on Aging also receives valuable support and aid from an Advisory Committee, broadly representative of the elder care community. The Agency on Aging�s Mission Statement is on the home page.
