What Legacy Link does

Legacy Link is a private nonprofit Area Agency on Aging founded in 1997 and based in Oakwood, Georgia. It serves older adults, adults with disabilities, caregivers, and family members across 13 Northeast Georgia counties through 16 free or low-cost programs. Its Aging and Disability Resource Connection counselors conduct screening, provide information and referrals, and connect clients with direct assistance and community services.

Core offerings include senior centers, home-delivered meals, the Senior Community Service Employment Program, AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP, State Health Insurance Assistance Program counseling, caregiver consultation, dementia support, wellness programs, assistive technology, and food-access initiatives. Services are delivered through Legacy Link staff, a regional senior-center network, home delivery, volunteers, and partner organizations. Its disclosed technology approach is a resource-connection and referral system rather than proprietary AI or software products; the company has no app, API, or disclosed SDK.

Legacy Link uses a community-led go-to-market model based on direct outreach, healthcare and social-service referrals, community events, a website, newsletters, social media, and word of mouth. Federal and State of Georgia funding, grants, AmeriCorps support, and community donations finance services that are primarily free or low cost. The operating model prioritizes regional access and service coordination rather than commercial monetization.
