Did you know? One year of home-delivered meals costs Missouri the same as 1 day in a hospital—or 11 days in a nursing home.

That’s the power of home- and community-based care: nutrition, a wellness check at the door, and support that helps older Missourians stay independent in the homes they love.

Missouri’s senior population is growing fast—already 1 in 4 Missourians is 60+. Nutrition, caregiver support, and home care aren’t extras. They’re what keep people safe, fed, and out of costly institutional care.

ma4—the Missouri Association of Area Agencies on Aging—is the state’s trusted voice on aging. We fight for the policy and funding that protect older neighbors in every county. Advocacy only works when more people join in.

Together we can make sure every older Missourian can age with dignity and independence.
