KIPDA’s Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) strives to understand and address the frustrations many older adults, people with disabilities, and family members experience when trying to learn about and access long-term services and support.
The ADRC raises visibility about the full range of available options; provide objective information, advice, counseling and assistance; empower people to make informed decisions about their long-term services and supports; and help people access public and private programs. We provide unbiased, reliable information and counseling to people with all levels of income.
