Keys To Health & Independence...

Countless studies have shown how staying in our homes as we age not only reduces health problems, thereby lowering the overall cost of health care, but also can dramatically extend our life expectancy.

Unfortunately, without access to the right resources, remaining in the home can be a significant challenge for many seniors and family members caring for them. This is why Council on Aging exists.

Council on Aging is the only senior care provider in the Volusia area capable of bringing together every resource available to help keep seniors in their home as they age.

COA is not a franchisee, we are a fully licensed, established care provider based right here in Volusia County. Our 40+ years of success has been a result of being locally accountable for providing the finest care available to seniors and their caregivers.

As the area's only 501(c)3 nonprofit senior services provider, we always put care before profit. Even better, every dollar paid for our services goes back into caring for our community! Not only that, but we are the only provider trusted by the state and county to handle matters like court-ordered guardianship, and even oversight of other senior services providers.

Let COA help you or your loved one live longer, healthier and more independently...
