The Area V Agency on Aging located in Pocatello is one of six Area Agencies on Aging in Idaho. It is part of a nationwide aging network created through the Older Americans Act. Each of the Area Agencies on Aging has a volunteer commissioner appointed by the governor through the Idaho Commission on Aging (ICOA). Our commissioner is Debra Reiland of Pocatello, Idaho. The objective of the Area Agency on Aging is to help people stay independent and contributing members of their communities. We offer an array of services, including Adult Protective Services, Advocacy services, and Veterans Directed- Home and Community Based services in our seven county area.
Mission & Values
Our mission is to provide a person centered network of quality services and supports that empower, inspire, and educate older adults, persons with disabilities, vulnerable adults and family caregivers to maintain their independence, safety, dignity and quality of life in a setting of their choice. We value the community support that helps seniors stay in their home, caregivers who make a difference, volunteers who give, so our community can be a better place to live, safety and autonomy, consumer choice, and partners that help us make it all work. For more information, see a copy of our 4 year Area Plan. Updates for the Area Plan can be viewed here: Area Plan 2018 Area Plan 2019 Area Plan 2020
Funding
The Area V Agency on Aging receives both federal funding through the Administration of Community Living and state funding from the Idaho Legislature (State Senior Services). These funds are distributed through the Idaho Commission on Aging (ICOA) which is the State Unit on Aging in Boise.
