Age Well, Inc.

Age Well, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Colchester, Vermont, that serves as the largest Area Agency on Aging (AAA) in the state. Registered in SAM.gov since 2008, the organization focuses on supporting older adults and individuals with disabilities, enabling them to remain independent in their homes and communities. With a mission centered on helping individuals age well, Age Well provides comprehensive services to nearly 10,000 older Vermonters annually through a network of volunteers and specialized programs.

The organization receives federal grants primarily from the Corporation for National and Community Service's AmeriCorps Seniors Senior Companion Program, with its most recent $402,497 award supporting volunteer-driven services such as companionship, transportation assistance, respite care, and light chores for seniors. Age Well also receives numerous sub-grants from the Vermont Agency of Human Services, covering a wide range of services including SNAP outreach, home-delivered meals, nutrition services, disease prevention, health promotion, family caregiver support, and long-term care ombudsman programs. These grants fund critical initiatives like expanding care transition services, supporting older refugees, enhancing COVID-19 vaccine access, and providing comprehensive supportive services for older individuals across Addison, Chittenden, Franklin, and Grand Isle Counties. The organization leverages federal investments to develop coordinated systems of support, with a primary focus on maintaining the independence, health, and social connectivity of Vermont's aging population.
