Institute On Ageing

The Institute on Aging is an organization that primarily services the San Francisco Bay Area. It is a non-profit which provides a comprehensive suite of services for individuals who want to age at home. The services appear to be free, as the organization relies heavily upon volunteers and donations.

There are number of great "how to" guides on the site, explaining things like how to select a caregiver or how to fill out your advanced directives. But in addition to providing information, the organization operates a hotline where you can connect with a professional for free advice on health, financial and emotional issues. For individuals looking to age at home and maintain their independence as they get older, the Institute on Aging is an indispensable resource.
