Coordinating Council on Aging and Adults with Disabilities

Group of older adults hanging out  

On Nov. 21, 2023, the Board of Supervisors (BOS), voted to rename the Long Term Care Coordinating Council (LTCCC) to be called the Coordinating Council on Aging and Adults with Disabilities (CCAAD).

To address the long-term care needs of a growing population, the BOS chartered the CCAAD in 2002 to identify needs and create solutions for long term care services and programs that enhance the lives of older adults and people with disabilities.

The goal of the Council is to provide a foundation so that Fairfax area residents are able to remain in their own community as they age or live with their disability and be able to participate in community life to the fullest.


Vision & Mission

The CCAAD works with residents, advocates, nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, businesses, local governments and faith communities to reach its vision of an "inclusive, supportive community of all ages and abilities in the Fairfax area." Its mission is to identify needs and promote solutions that enhance the lives of older adults, adults with disabilities and caregivers so all can participate fully in the community.

Guiding Principles

  • Advance equity and diversity
  • Advocate for creative solutions
  • Educate funders and policy makers
  • Increase collaboration and community partnerships
  • Raise awareness of long term care needs

Strategic Plan Goals for 2023 – 2026

  1. To promote quality of life, advocate on behalf of all older adults and adults with disabilities targeting specific issues for those in underserved communities.
  2. Identify and address the social and racial inequities and service delivery gaps by dismantling systemic and institutional barriers for older adults, adults with disabilities and caregivers.
  3. Inform Fairfax community about CCAAD’s work and county programs for older adults, adults with disabilities and the underserved older adult communities.
