LMTAAA is the Area Agency on Aging for Lewis, Mason and Thurston counties. We provide support for older adults, adults living with disabilities, and the people who care for them. LMTAAA receives funding through DSHS, ALTSA, The Older Americans Act, ACL and CMS.
The Area Plan is a four-year guide to building programs and services that reflect community needs. The plan focuses on important topics, like transportation, housing, social connection, and caregiving.
The Area Plan sets clear goals for LMTAAA and explains the steps our staff will take to reach them. Federal law requires Area Agencies on Aging create Area Plans every four years.
The 2027-2030 Area Plan will highlight key findings from the Area Plan Survey. We will post a draft of the Area Plan for public comment in June 2026. The final plan will be available on our website in 2027.
We share the report publicly so community members, local organizations, and partners can use the information to support their own efforts. Our goal is to make sure our programs reflect the needs and voices of the people we serve.
