With an overarching mission to eliminate ageism and ensure the dignity and quality of life of approximately 1.8 million older New Yorkers, the NYC Department for the Aging is deeply committed to helping older adults age in their homes and creating a community-care approach that reflects a model age-inclusive city.
The Home Based Unit oversees the case management, home care and friendly visiting programs. The unit's role is to provide technical assistance and contract oversight to ensure that older adults can continue to live safely at home by receiving quality services.
