The Administration on Aging

Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
GAO discussed the Administration on Aging's (AOA) programs and services, focusing on: (1) the match between its missions and resources; (2) how AOA provides technical assistance and oversight to state units on aging; and (3) whether AOA technical assistance met the needs of state units on aging. GAO noted that: (1) the AOA mission has grown without a commensurate growth in resources; (2) appropriations for AOA programs and services increased, but failed to keep up with the rate of inflation; (3) AOA experienced a significant decline in such administrative resources as personnel and travel funds, resulting in decreased AOA involvement with state units and area agencies on aging; (4) AOA adopted policies to target services to those in greatest socioeconomic need, but conducted limited systematic evaluation research of those policies and strategies; (5) AOA established 10 regional offices within the Department of Health and Human Services' regional office network to provide technical assistance needs to state agencies; (6) state officials identified such unmet technical assistance needs as targeting, data collection, and outreach initiatives to low-income and minority elders; (7) lack of funds hindered the provision of technical assistance; and (8) due to staff shortages and lack of travel funds, AOA failed to conduct necessary oversight of state units on aging.

Book Description
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information that it had previously presented in a testimony on the Administration on Aging's (AOA) programs and services, focusing on: (1) the match between its missions and resources; (2) how AOA provides technical assistance and oversight to state units on aging; and (3) whether AOA technical assistance meets the needs of state units on aging. GAO found that: (1) as mandated by the Older Americans Act, AOA helps meet the special needs of the elderly by providing them with a wide array of social and nutritional services; (2) the U.S. elderly population has increased by nearly 65 percent since the act's passage in 1965, making the provision of such services increasingly important; (3) to serve the rapidly growing elderly population, AOA has been expanded to provide more programs and services, engage in more extensive federal coordination, and conduct more program evaluation; (4) due to a significant decline in inflation-adjusted program funds, staffing, and travel funds, new programs and mandates are unfunded, key leadership positions are vacant, and AOA monitoring capabilities are in question; (5) staffing and travel constraints hinder AOA ability to provide technical assistance to state agencies on aging; (6) state officials identified such unmet technical assistance needs as targeting, data collection, and outreach initiatives to low-income and minority elders; and (7) AOA established 10 regional offices within the Department of Health and Human Services' regional office network to provide technical assistance to state agencies.
