National Hispanic Council on Aging
About NHCOA
The National Hispanic Council on Aging, founded in 1979, is the nation’s premier constituency-based organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for the Hispanic/Latino older adults, their families, and their communities. The NHCOA works with 42 formal affiliate organizations and a broader network of over 7,000 groups and individual associates across the country.
The principal points of the NHCOA’s focus are addressing disparities in access and quality of healthcare for seniors; promoting economic security, affordable housing, political empowerment, and freedom from discrimination and abuse; and assisting community-based organizations throughout the country who are dedicated to fighting for the wellbeing of the Hispanic elderly and their families.
On the local level, the NHCOA provides community-based organizations with training, technical assistance, sub-grants, and access to the best results-producing programs, partnerships, and coalitions. On the national level, the Washington-based NHCOA is a leader in educating legislators on the aging community’s needs and contributions, and helping craft permanent solutions to the problems that compromise the security, health, happiness, and dignity of America’s fastest-growing senior population.
