About Us
Madison County Office for the Aging helps older adults and their caregivers live with dignity by providing access to a variety of home and community-based services. Our unique value proposition is that we understand how aging can affect an individual's ability to stay in their current living situation, so we strive to maximize independence for our clients by offering cost-effective non-medical support services tailored to meet each person’s needs.
Our mission is to ensure that all individuals are able to age in place at home while feeling supported and safe. Our vision is simple: We want everyone in Madison County who needs help as they age to have access not only to quality care, but also peace of mind knowing that they can stay close with family members throughout the aging process.
