Older Mississippians Act establishes the Division of Aging and Adult Services to administer programs for older adults.
The Older Mississippians Act designates the Division of Aging and Adult Services within the Mississippi Department of Human Services as the State Unit on Aging. It outlines the division's duties, including administering human services and long-term care programs, ensuring area agencies on aging operate effectively, and overseeing federally funded programs. The act repeals the Mississippi Old Age Security Law and authorizes the division to rescind the designation of an area agency on aging or take intermediate measures if certain findings are made.
