Helping guide older adults, caregivers and persons with disabilities
CPAAA Is Here to Help
For over 50 years Central Plains Area Agency on Aging (CPAAA) has helped guide older adults, caregivers and persons with disabilities by providing information, assistance and support. Our friendly staff see the big picture and are here to help you understand your options and find resources available through CPAAA and our community partners. CPAAA serves older individuals, family caregivers, adults with disabilities and professionals in Butler, Harvey and Sedgwick Counties.
Let's change the way we view getting older.
Avoid Ageism and Ageist Remarks.
Ageism is unfair treatment of older people based on negative and untrue stereotypes about their age. Ageist attitudes and remarks can affect both individuals and society, impacting things like health, jobs, social interactions, self-esteem, and mental well-being.

Central Plains Area Agency on Aging (CPAAA) - In-Home Counseling and Community Support Groups
We're excited to share that our program, In-Home Counseling and Community Support Groups, has been featured in USAging Aging Innovations Awards Video Series! This video showcases how we're helping improve the lives of older adults through innovative solutions and compassionate service.
The program addresses mental health concerns and caregiver stress through comprehensive clinical assessments and the provision of in-home or community-based counseling sessions. Additionally, it delivers community-based psychoeducation and outreach to promote mental wellness, reduce stigma associated with therapy and treatment, and increase awareness of mental health risk factors.
