Ohio Department of Aging: Workforce Development

The Ohio Department of Aging is the designated State Unit on Aging, as required by the Federal Older Americans Act. We are a cabinet-level state agency with a director appointed by the governor. We receive and administer funding from a variety of state and federal sources and oversee several programs.

Our Mission: To provide leadership for the delivery of services and supports that improve and promote quality of life and personal choice for older Ohioans, adults with disabilities, their families and their caregivers.

Our Vision: Ohioans will benefit from a network of effective resources and community services that support consumer rights, independence and dignity.
