Who we are…

The Area 1 Agency on Aging serves Humboldt and Del Norte counties. It is one of 33 similar agencies in the state of California.

As a service provider we help older adults and people with disabilities, their families, caregivers, friends and neighbors find information and resources.
As a funding agency, we award contracts for nutrition and other supportive services to meet the needs of older people in our communities.
As an administrative agency, we monitor, evaluate and document the performance of every contracted service provider.
As a planning agency, we gather information, determine priorities for service, and develop a plan to serve our community. As an advocate for older adults, we conduct public hearings, provide information to local and state decision-makers and collaborate with other organizations to provide needed assistance.

We invite you to explore our website and discover the many services provided for the older adult population (those 60+ years old) in Humboldt and Del Norte counties.
