Description
The Administration on Aging (AoA) is a federal agency devoted exclusively to the issues and concerns of older Americans. The agency’s goals are to: support a national network of State and Area Agencies on Aging and Indian Tribes; develop and oversee a comprehensive and coordinated system of supportive services and opportunities to meet the social and human service needs of the elderly; and serve as an advocate on behalf of older people. AoA serves as an information resource to the public and professionals in aging through its Eldercare Locator toll free number, its National Aging Information Center, and its web sites.
