Administration on Aging

The Administration on Aging (AoA) is an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services.

AoA also awards discretionary grants to research organizations working on projects that support those goals. It conducts statistical activities in support of the research, analysis, and evaluation of programs to meet the needs of an aging population.
