Which Area Agency on Aging serves my county in Alaska?
Last verified October 17, 2026 · All Alaska resources
Alaska has no regional Area Agencies on Aging: the whole state is a single planning and service area run by the Alaska Department of Health. Regional Aging and Disability Resource Centers help older Alaskans find local services.
The state office is the Alaska Department of Health (State Unit on Aging; planning coordinated by the Alaska Commission on Aging). Anywhere in the US, the Eldercare Locator (eldercare.acl.gov, 1-800-677-1116) connects you to your local agency.

What does an Area Agency on Aging do?
Area Agencies on Aging plan and fund local services for older adults under the Older Americans Act: information and referral, in-home services, meals, caregiver support and help applying for benefits. Many contract with home care agencies to deliver in-home services.
