The Aging and Adult Services department plays a vital role in supporting low-income, diverse Asian, and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (A&NH/PI) seniors and adults who are age 55 and older, primarily in King County. Through its five core programs— Case Management, Community Living Connections, Health Home and Care Transitions, Food Bank and the Club Bamboo Senior Center—AAS promotes the health and well-being of these communities by providing culturally and linguistically appropriate support services, physical activities and nutritious meals. These comprehensive, integrated services are available directly through the agency or in collaboration with trusted community partners.

ACRS FOOD BANK
Our food bank distributes healthy and nutritious foods like rice, tofu, noodles and fresh produce that meet the cultural and dietary needs of Asians and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders across King County.
SENIOR LUNCH PROGRAMS
