Assistant Secretary for Aging KATHY GREENLEE

The mission of the Administration on

Aging (AOA) is to help elderly individuals

maintain their independence and dignity

in their homes and communities through

comprehensive, coordinated, and cost-

effective systems of long-term care and

livable communities across the United

States. The agency develops policies,

plans, and programs designed to advance

the concerns and interests of older

people and their caregivers. AOA works

in partnership with the National Aging

Network to promote the development of

all-inclusive structures and home- and

community-based long-term care that is

responsive to the needs and preferences

of older people.
