North Carolina Division of Aging and Adult Services

Services

The Division of Aging and Adult Services supports older and disabled adults and their families through a community-based system of opportunities, services, benefits, and protections. Under the Home and Community Care Block Grant (HCCBG) more than 69,000 seniors were assisted in SFY2010-11, many of whom would have otherwise been at risk due to their social and economic needs. Nearly half of those served live alone (48%) and reported income at or below poverty (44%). More than 29,000 enjoyed congregate meals and over 19,000 received home-delivered meals. About 7,500 seniors were helped with in-home aide services and nearly 10,500 received help with transportation to health care, shopping, and other activities.
