The Vermont Association of Area Agencies on Aging (V4A) is a nonprofit organization based in Winooski, Vermont, comprised of five regional agencies that focus on elder services. Its mission centers on aiding older adults and their families by providing information and assistance across a range of needs, including caregiver support options, health insurance counseling, transportation, nutrition programs such as meals on wheels, and access to home health services, housing alternatives, and wellness activities. The organization serves seniors and their families as a resource to understand available options and connect them with appropriate services, helping to address practical and health-related challenges associated with aging. In the Vermont nonprofit sector, V4A operates as a coordinating body for aging services, positioning itself to support older residents through a network of local programs. A notable recent development includes a partnership with GetSetUp in December 2022 to offer interactive online programming aimed at increasing activity and wellness for residents aged 60 and older. The agency’s leadership appointment in 2021 brought Mary Hayden into the role of Executive Director, reflecting ongoing governance and organizational leadership within the Vermont aging services landscape.
