OUR MISSION

The mission of River Valley Regional Commission (RVRC) is to support the sixteen (16) counties and their city's within our region to plan and develop the economic opportunities and infrastructure necessary to attain and maintain the highest living standard and quality of life attainable for residents of the regions and area local governments.

Included within the River Valley Regional Commission is the River Valley Area Agency on Aging.

The River Valley Area Agency on Aging provides seniors opportunities to maintain their activity, independence, and dignity through a comprehensive, coordinated system of services and support. The AAA assesses need, advocates for seniors, engages community support, coordinates program funding, and monitors and evaluates the work of service providers to ensure that seniors receive high quality assistance.
