About
As the local representatives of the Pennsylvania Department of Aging, AAA implements various programs for older adults and caregivers throughout Lackawanna County.










We are not victims of aging, sickness, and death. These are part of scenery, not the seer, who is immune to any form of change. This seer is the spirit, the expression of eternal being.
Deepak Chopra

Our Vision
The AAA reflects a simple philosophy: to act as advocates for the aging and to serve, protect, enable and empower older adults and persons with disabilities through the provision and continuous improvement of home and community based services.
