Area Agency on Aging

The Area Agency on Aging of Dane County serves individuals age 60 plus and their families in accessing services that will help older adults continue living in their own homes and communities. The amount of assistance that is provided depends on the needs of the older adult. These services can be short-term, such as getting signed up for a prescription drug program, or long-term, such as someone who has a chronic health condition receiving ongoing support from a case manager.

Examples of community-based services include congregate and home-delivered meals, caregiver support, case management, and help with benefit questions. Many of these services are provided on a donation basis and are delivered at the local level.
