Effective March 1, 2024, the Weld County Area Agency on Aging (AAA) is expanding. Coinciding with the expansion is a refreshed agency title meant to be more reflective of the diverse populations served. A rebranding campaign launched this month; the agency will now be recognized as the Home and Community Supports Division.
Weld Home-and-Community-Supports Division
Weld County’s AAA is unique and has historically encompassed multiple programs creating a one-stop shop for ease and convenience of community members and partners alike. The expansion retains Older Americans Act programs: Options for Long-Term Care (OLTC), Adult Protective Services (APS) and Long-Term Care Eligibility, with the addition of the Case Management Agency (CMA). The CMA will determine eligibility and provide case management across the spectrum of Long-Term Care programs for the aging population as well as youth and adults living with disabilities.
“We’re excited to rebrand our division with a name that is more comprehensive and inclusive of the diverse population we serve,” said Jill Colavolpe, AAA Deputy Division Head. “We’ll be maintaining the AAA name and logo within the division, specifically for the Older Americans Act programs, but Home and Community Supports will now be designated to serve people of all ages and abilities.”
