We are 12 volunteers appointed by elected officials of Fairfax County, Falls Church and the City of Fairfax.
We advocate for the needs of older adults and tap their potential to enrich the community.
The federal Older Americans Act mandates that local area agencies on aging have community advisory committees. The Fairfax Area Commission on Aging is the Fairfax Area Agency on Aging's community advisory committee. It advises the agency on developing and coordinating community services, policies, programs and actions affecting older adults in the Fairfax area.
