Central Alabama Aging Consortium

What Central Alabama Aging Consortium does

Central Alabama Aging Consortium (CAAC) is a private, non-profit Area Agency on Aging founded in 1975 and headquartered at 400 Cotton Gin Road, Montgomery, Alabama. CAAC is one of 13 Area Agencies on Aging contracted by the Alabama Department of Senior Services and is the designated lead aging services organization for Autauga, Elmore, and Montgomery counties. The organization coordinates a comprehensive suite of home and community-based services for seniors aged 60 and older, family caregivers, and adults with disabilities (18+), including Medicaid Elderly and Disabled Waiver services, in-home personal care and homemaker services, the Alabama Cares caregiver support program, nutrition programs delivered through 18 senior center locations, prescription assistance via SenioRx, State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) counseling, dementia-friendly community initiatives, legal assistance, elder justice advocacy, long-term care ombudsman services, and the PANDA Project dementia caregiver program. Services are delivered at zero cost to eligible participants under Medicaid waiver criteria, and the organization also offers dedicated Spanish-language outreach hours.

CAAC's revenue model is structurally a government-funded non-profit: it receives pass-through grants from the Alabama Department of Senior Services under the Older Americans Act and contracts with the Alabama Medicaid Agency for the Elderly and Disabled Waiver program. Supplementary funding flows through AMES (Autauga, Montgomery, Elmore Seniors, Inc.), a wholly-owned 501(c)(3) fundraising arm formed in 2001 that solicits donations for food bag distribution, incontinence supplies, medication co-pay assistance, robotic companion pets, and dementia programs. Event sponsorship revenue is generated via annual events such as May Fest (drawing nearly 600 attendees in 2025 with ArchWell Health as Elite sponsor) and the Harvest Festival. Customer segments are individual seniors, family caregivers, and adults with disabilities; named corporate entities such as Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama, Viva Medicare, and ArchWell Health appear as event sponsors rather than paying service customers.

The organization operates with 11-50 employees and does not maintain a proprietary technology platform; its operational toolkit consists of standard case management, intake processing, Zoom for webinars, Constant Contact for email, and a basic web presence. Distribution occurs through the 18 senior center network, an Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) intake hotline (334-240-4670), a toll-free number (800-264-4680), in-home service delivery, and downloadable PDF intake forms. CAAC is governed by a Board of Directors representing local governments across the tri-county service area, with an Advisory Council providing additional oversight as required by the Older Americans Act; Yolanda Evans serves as Executive Director.
