About Us
Mission
Aging Together through partnerships connects people to communities
and resources to improve quality of life as we age.

Aging Together supports
Aging in Place!
Our vision is for age-friendly communities that actively engage, support, and value older adults. We are a partnership-driven agency that helps our region address the needs and preferences of the growing older population, assuring residents will have the services and support they need as they age. This partnership is built on an alliance of more than 150 regional organizations and individuals who actively participate in County Teams that work in their communities.
For many older adults, the ability to age in place is a top priority. However, significant challenges stand in the way, including:
Limited access to transportation
Access to affordable housing
Food insecurity
Barriers to obtaining prescription medications
Gaps in dementia care services and information
Shortages in caregiving support
Social Isolation
To learn more about how Aging Together addresses these challenges, please take a look at our Strategic Plan in the red box below.

Aging Together works within the five counties of Planning District 9 in Virginia.
