Profile

Northeast Kansas Area Agency on Aging (NEKAAA) was established in 1973, through the Older Americans Act, as a community-based 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization located in Hiawatha, Kansas. For over 45 years, we have served as a “single point of entry” to aging services tailored to local and regional needs through case management, nutritional support, transportation, information and assistance, health promotion programs, caregiver services, and access to community resources and support. We also serve as an Aging and Disability Resource Center focused on long term planning for individuals of all ages, abilities, and income levels.
