Mission

The Southeast Missouri Area Agency on Aging's mission is to develop a coordinated delivery system of services to assist and enable older Missourians to remain in their own homes as long as possible and to enhance the quality of life for all older Missourians.  

Donations

Since our major funding is from federal and state funds and our services are provided without charge, donations are an important funding source.  We are always willing and able to receive tax deductible donations to help fund services for seniors in our eighteen-county area.  Any and all donations are accepted.  If you are interested in making a donation of any kind, please call the Agency at our toll-free number 1-800-392-8771 or email by clicking on the following email address semoaaa@semoaaa.org.  We thank you for any help you can give to us to provide services to our seniors.
