Last week, the Central Mississippi Area Agency on Aging hosted the FY 2027 Aging Public Hearing in Yazoo City at the B.S. Ricks Memorial Library, where we engaged in meaningful discussions regarding the growing needs of seniors throughout Central Mississippi.

We appreciate everyone who attended and shared valuable insight, concerns, and recommendations related to services and support for our older adult population. Discussions were held on healthcare access, transportation, caregiver support, nutrition services, and other critical resources that impact the quality of life for seniors in our communities.

The feedback received will help guide future planning and priorities as we continue working to strengthen aging services across the region. Thank you to our community partners, advocates, caregivers, and residents for contributing to this important conversation and for your continued commitment to supporting older adults.
