VERIFICATION OF INTENT This Area Plan on Aging is written for three reasons: To comply with the Older Americans Act as amended in 2006; To meet requirements for approval and match the mission of the Arizona Department of Economic Security, Division of Adult and Aging Services (DAAS); and To create a quality plan that will assist in accomplishing the goals of the Older Americans Act and those of DAAS and Pima Council on Aging to benefit older persons in this planning and service area (Pima County). This plan is important because it sets forth this agency’s intent to: Provide comprehensive and coordinated service delivery systems for older persons; Assure the most effective and efficient use of available resources; Provide information about older persons, the extent of their needs and services necessary to improve their quality of life; and Identify this agency, as part of a larger network, as the point of contact for advocacy, information, assistance and services to older persons and their families. This document is important to Pima Council on Aging as the Area Agency on Aging because: This Area Agency on Aging was created to develop and implement comprehensive and coordinated systems to serve older individuals in this planning and service area. As such, PCOA is responsible for planning and providing supportive services, including nutrition, social services, caregiver support and support to grandparents raising grandchildren. In addition, PCOA will: Allocate adequate proportions of Title III-B funds for the delivery of access services, inhome services, and legal services; Establish and maintain Information and Assistance Services; Target services to older individuals with greatest economic and social need, with special attention to minority, frail, disabled and rural individuals, including individuals at risk of institutional placement, and older individuals with limited English speaking proficiency; Identify individuals eligible for assistance under the Older Americans Act and serve them in at least the same proportion as their Census percentage representation in the community; Conduct periodic hearings on activities under this Area Plan and provide an annual update of budgets and services provided; Provide technical assistance about aging issues to subcontractors and the community; Solicit views from service recipients and incorporate them where appropriate; Serve as the advocate and focal point for older individuals within Pima County. Collaborate and coordinate with other local public and private organizations that provide long-term care services; Maintain an Advisory Council to advise the AAA on all matters relating to the development, administration, and operations conducted under this Area Plan; Facilitate a comprehensive and coordinated system to provide long-term care in home and community based settings as directed by the older individual and their family caregiver;
