State Plan on Aging

Longevity Ready Maryland

The Maryland Department of Aging (MDOA) is pleased to present its State Plan on Aging in accordance with the Older Americans Act of 1965* for federal fiscal years 2026-2029. Longevity Ready Maryland (LRM) is the first of its kind in the nation, where a four-year State Plan on Aging is integrated with a ten-year Multisector Plan for Aging, setting Maryland apart from other states. It outlines four Epic Goals in eight priority areas that define short, mid, and long-term outcomes that will help pave the way for a Longevity Ready Maryland. 

We are pleased to partner with a dynamic network of 19 Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) to provide the local infrastructure needed to implement the plan, and invite you to download the LRM Multisector Plan for Aging - PDF - 8.94 MB to participate in its success. 

The Maryland Department of Aging is also required to prepare an LRM Annual Report - PDF - 1.5 MB each year. Our first was issued on December 31, 2025.

*In accordance with the Older Americans Act of 1965, the Maryland Department of Aging is required to develop and implement a State Plan on Aging to provide a framework for programs, activities, and services for older adults. The current state plan is in effect October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2029. ​
