HOWARD, General Conned IV Ann A. thumunr, Ph. D., Minority kkag, p PREFACE .., Requests come in each week from members, of the Select Commtttee on Aging, other Menaliers of Congress and the general public about whom to con- tact in a particular State ort'community about aging programs. Under the Older Americans Act, each State has.established an.office onaging; 'and most States have in thill designated Area Agencies on Aging to serveolder people in specific comkpunities. These are the agencies to which the Committee refers most of these inquiries. Until now, no easfileference tool disted to permit the identification of these agencies and' the people in charge of them. That ig the purpose of this directory. The publication of this document owes much to many individnals,Yvonne Alstsin 'and,.in the crucial early stages of the work, Nancy Smythe, handled the ----bulk of the Aging Committee's compilation of accurate and timely infotmation. State agencies were surveyed twice by mail, and followup calls made, in a very professional manner. Ed Howard, also of the Committee staff, coordinatedtheir work. We are indebted to two others. Kay Stunec, liaison officer kr theNational Association of Area Agencies on Aging, contributed a great deal of time and expertise to the project, and muCh of the final dOcuMent's usefulness isdirectly attributable to her and her organization. Robert Bostick of the Congressional Research Service directed the graphics work, and I believe that the individual State maps areas well executed aS any I have seen in any project ,of this type. Nor would the directory have( been possible without the full and prompt cooperation of State tmd Area Agencies on Aging acroSs the countr3r, who pro- vided much of the initial information and reviewed an early draft of thedirec- tory. The directory lists 56 'iState" units on aging and 599 AreaAgencies odAging. The listings are, to the betit of our ability, accurate a0of November .1, 1978. WO that many entries, it is inevitable that many changes will be necessary in a relatively short time. It is ouT hope that anther organization, perhaps the National A.ssocilition of APOIL Agencies on Ag ig,. will undertake the taskof keeping this information up-to-date in the fu, ure. I trust that the directory will.be a useful tool/for all of us as we try to improve the lives of okier Americans. .,- - CbDBAU PHA'PER,Chairman. i UM f 0 CON9714VS l'age s -(III) 1 Introduction:I:low to use this directory .; ".,. 1 State-by-Stafe breakdown of Area Agencies on Aging: .
