Our Mission

Our mission at Advantage Aging Solutions is to enhance the quality of life for older adults, persons with disabilities, and caregivers through advocacy, education, and support. We want to ensure that older adults and adults with disabilities are valued and have the resources they need to live with dignity.

Our Programs

At Advantage Aging Solutions we coordinate a variety of home and community-based services through contracts with local providers in fourteen North Florida counties to assist seniors, people with disabilities and their caregivers.

All programs are designed to maximize our clients' independence and security while they age in place.
