Eastern Area Agency On Aging Services Eastern Area Agency on Aging has been serving seniors and their families in Penobscot, Piscataquis, Hancock, and Washington counties since 1973. With a specially trained and dedicated staff, we are able to provide seniors with a variety of options, opportunities, resources and referrals. When an older person has a problem, large or small, one phone call to us is usually all it takes for the help to begin. And the majority of our services are free of charge. Nutrition: The Nutrition Program operates about 50 senior community dining rooms that provide well-balanced and delicious noontime meals to seniors. Home delivered hot meals are available for frail, elderly, homebound persons who are unable to cook for themselves. Medicare Prescription Drug and Health Insurance Assistance: Community Services Consultants have been able to save hundreds of seniors thousands of dollars a year by enrolling them in programs with benefits, such as the low cost drug card, for which they are eligible and yet knew nothing about. Caregiving: Family Caregiver Resource Specialists help family members and spouses who provide assistance to an older person. Legal Services for the Elderly: Lawyers and paralegals provide legal advice and assistance to seniors, either in our office or in the client's home. EAAA is an independent, nonprofit 501 ( c ) managed by a professional staff and governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, who are made up of representatives from our four county service area. We also have a volunteer advisory council to help us identify the needs of seniors and find ways to meet those needs. EAAA is there when you, your family or your neighbors need services. Whether you are a senior yourself, or a caregiver of an older person, EAAA is ready to help. Programs funded in part by the State of Maine Department of Health & Human Services and the agency is a part of a nationwide network of agencies on aging established by the federal government's Older Americans Act. Eastern Area Agency on Aging is a United Way Partnership Agency. EAAA Staff can be reached Monday through Friday between 8: 00 am and 4: 30 pm.
