Dave
Norman a staff member from the Mesa County Department of Human Services was honored on August 19 by the Associated Governments of Northwest
Colorado AGNC for his 40 years of service to the Area Office on Aging. Dave
began with AAA at the programs inception in 1974.
AAA's were established under the Older Americans Act (OAA) in 1973
to respond to the needs of Americans aged 60 and over in every local community.
The AAA plans, coordinates and offers services that help older adults remain in
their home, if that is their preference, aided by services such as
Meals-on-Wheels, homemaker assistance and other programs needed to make
independent living a viable option. By making a range of options available
through contracts with both public and private groups, the AAA makes it
possible for older individuals to choose the services and living arrangement
that suit them best. In some cases local contractors are not available and the
AAA may act as the service provider.
CONGRATULATIONS DAVE!
