The Council on Aging (COA) Inc. is a private, non-profit, tax exempt organization established in 1973, and received IRC 501(c)(3) tax exempt status in 1977. The Council on Aging has grown from a group of concerned individuals into a grassroots advocacy, education, outreach and training agency for senior adults. For over 35 years, The Council on Aging has been involved in promoting a greater awareness of, and facilitating solutions to needs and concerns of the over 90,000 senior citizens in North, Central and South Fulton County, Georgia. COA’s history as an advocacy group and its experience in serving a diverse community has made the agency an ideal channel through which to evaluate, to represent and to respond to the critical needs of the low-income, isolated and uninformed aging community.
