Milestones Area Agency on Aging (MAAA) is one of six state-designated Area Agencies on Aging that serve the State of Iowa’s 99 counties. Milestones Area Agency on Aging is a private, not-for-profit corporation serving individuals throughout 17 counties in Southeastern Iowa. With an administrative office in Davenport and regional offices in Burlington and Ottumwa, Milestones consistently strives to expand agency reach to provide necessary programs and services to as many individuals as possible within our region, with particular priority placed on those most at risk.
Milestones is governed by a Board of Directors who represent a cross-section of the 17-county service area. Becky Passman, CEO, is responsible for 100+ staff, and the administration of all agency policies, procedures, and program planning in accordance with federal and state guidelines.
Milestones Area Agency on Aging coordinates services for individuals to help them maintain the independence they desire. Services we provide include options counseling, case management, nutrition programs, caregiver support, evidence-based health programs, advocacy, and recreation and education programs. We serve the following counties in Iowa: Appanoose, Clinton, Davis, Des Moines, Henry, Jefferson, Keokuk, Lee, Louisa, Lucas, Mahaska, Monroe, Muscatine, Scott, Van Buren, Wapello and Wayne.
Milestones and its programs are funded through a partnership of federal, state and local governments, local grants, participant contributions, and private donations. Federal money, as authorized in the Older Americans Act of 1965, is allocated through the Administration for Community Living to the Iowa Department on Aging, known as IDA, or the “State Unit”. IDA then distributes these funds via formula, along with Elderly Services funding provided by the state, among the state’s six area agencies on aging. Want to Learn More?
