Aging Programs Coordinator at Centralina Area Agency on Aging - Charlotte, North Carolina, United States
Centralina Area Agency on Aging (AAA) strives to support and enhance the capacity of service and advocacy systems to promote independence, preserve dignity and advocate for the rights of older and disabled adults and their families.With the enactment of powerful federal legislation known as the Older Americans Act in 1965, Area Agencies on Aging were mandated in every state. In 1971, N.C. Governor Robert W. Scott released an Administrative Directive placing Area Agencies on Aging within the already designated regional planning organizations. Centralina Area Agency on Aging is part of Centralina Regional Council, one of 16 such lead regional planning organizations.
