OUR STORY
For more than four decades, AAA Region 9 has been the local link between federal and state aging programs and the people who need them most.
We work with hospitals, physicians, providers, and neighbors so no one has to navigate complex systems alone. From a first phone call to ongoing care coordination, our role is connection clear, compassionate, and local.
Headquartered in Cambridge, Ohio, we remain focused on one promise: older adults and caregivers across Region 9 should have access to services that protect health, safety, and independence.
OUR VALUES
These principles shape every referral, screening, and service plan we touch.
Every older adult deserves respect, choice, and the right to live in the community they call home.
We support caregivers as essential partners with respite, counseling, training, and a listening ear.
Funded through the Older Americans Act and local partnerships, we steward resources with transparency.
Plans are built around each person's goals, culture, and preferences never a one-size- fits-all checklist.
SERVICE AREA
We serve east central Ohio including Belmont, Carroll, Coshocton, Guernsey, Harrison, Holmes, Jefferson, Muskingum, and Tuscarawas.
