CSRA Agency on Aging

The CSRA Regional Development Center has been designated by the Georgia Department of Human Resources’ Division of Aging Services as the region’s Area Agency on Aging.

The CSRA Area Agency on Aging (AAA), a division of the CSRA Regional Development Center, is working aggressively to meet the needs of older adults in the CSRA with a blend of technically enhanced regional strategy development and old-fashioned community teamwork.

The CSRA Area Agency on Aging was designated in October, 1974, to provide and coordinate programs for older adults in the Central Savannah River Area, located in east central Georgia and headquartered in Augusta, Georgia. From the beginning, the goal of the Agency has been to assure maximum independence and enhance the quality of life for older persons through home- and community-based services.

The CSRA Area Agency on Aging provides a variety of services and support to improve the lives of senior citizens in all 13 counties of the CSRA. The Area Agency on Aging’s primary activities are:

identifying and planning for aging-service needs throughout the region, connecting senior citizens and caregivers with needed aging services and information,
providing staff support and leadership to outside agencies that address aging issues, and
administering grants and contracts to quality organizations that provide services to older CSRA residents.
