Southwest Missouri Office on Aging provides services through 38 senior centers throughout a 17-county area. We primarily serve seniors age 60 and above and their families. Seniors qualify for our services on the basis of need, not income. Our clients have the opportunity to contribute toward the cost of their services, but services are not affected by their ability to pay.

We are the first call when services are needed. We have employees for one-on-one counseling about the diverse resources and services available. We respond to all kinds of requests, most of which are within the four chief concerns of the Older Americans Act:

• Access Services
• In-Home Services
• Caregiver Services
• Community Services
