About Area Agency on Aging of Palm Beach Treasure Coast
Aging services dominate the Area Agency on Aging of Palm Beach Treasure Coast Inc’s grantmaking, with large recurring awards flowing to county senior-service systems and partner providers across Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, and Okeechobee counties. Recent grants show sustained support for local infrastructure that helps older adults stay independent, including $11,601,590 to Palm Beach County Division of Senior Services in 2024 and $8,610,327 in 2025, both labeled senior services support. The foundation also backs community-based providers that deliver services directly to older adults and caregivers, such as Mae Volen Senior Center, Council on Aging of St Lucie Inc, Senior Resource Association, and Council on Aging of Martin County. Its mission centers on promoting independence, dignity, and wellbeing for seniors, adults with disabilities, and caregivers, and the grant list reflects that mandate through repeated operating support for organizations embedded in the aging network. The pattern is less about one-time project grants than about sustained funding for service delivery, coordination, and the local network that carries out aging programs.
