This Area Plan for Aging Services describes the scope of services to be provided by the Area Agency on Aging with funding from the Department for the Aging. It reflects a planning process based on the basic demographic characteristics of the older population and an assessment of their needs. The Area Agency on Aging submits the Plan to the Virginia Department for the Aging for review and approval.
The Plan describes the management and administration, service systems development, service delivery, and advocacy activities of the Area Agency on Aging during the Plan period. These activities address one or more of the national goals of the Older Americans Act:
-
To secure and maintain maximum independence and dignity in a home environment for older individuals capable of self care with appropriate supportive services.
-
To remove individual and social barriers to economic and personal independence for older individuals.
- To provide a continuum of care for the vulnerable elderly.
