Aging and Disability Resource Centers

  • Aging

The Aging and Disability Resource Center Program (ADRC), a collaborative effort of Administration on Aging and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, is designed to streamline access to long- term care.

Deeper dive
The ADRC program provides states with an opportunity to effectively integrate the full range of long-term supports and services into a single, coordinated system. By simplifying access to long-term care systems, ADRCs and other single point of entry (SEP) systems are serving as the cornerstone for long-term care reform in many states.
