The Minnesota Board on Aging (MBA) works to ensure that older Minnesotans and their families are effectively served by state and local policies and programs, so they can age well and live well. The MBA does this through its three major roles: administrator, advisor and advocate.
Administrator
The MBA partners with Minnesota’s Area Agencies on Aging and others to administer and oversee the effective use of Older Americans Act and state funds to support older Minnesotans.
Advisor
The Minnesota Board on Aging provides objective information and promotes public education on ways we can all meet the changing needs of the state’s older population so they can age well and live well.
Advocate
The Board promotes policies to the state legislature, the Governor and state agencies that accurately reflect the needs and interests of older Minnesotans.
