About Us




The Medina County Office for Older Adults (MCOOA) was opened in 1974 to help the seniors of Medina County by providing nutrition programs and transportation programs that are funded through the Older Americans Act and through the Medina County Commissioners. The agency also houses a lovely senior center that provides many opportunities for activities and education for older adults. We grew in 2011 to encompass our Aging and Disability Resource Center and can now serve many needs of those 60 and over but also anyone age 18 and over who may have a disability.

MISSION STATEMENT

Medina County Office for Older Adults will offer support to older adults and adults with a disability to live independently and safely within their own homes and community.



The Medina County Office for Older Adults is a department of the Medina County Government and is located on the ground floor of the Human Services Building, 246 Northland Drive, Medina, Ohio. The department also has an Advisory Council made up of representatives from all over the county (see below).
