EODD Area Agency on Aging goes digital

News

March 14, 2024

Eastern Oklahoma Development District is pleased to announce its new website, https:// eoddok.org which shares information about EODD and AAA programs.

EODD Area Agency on Aging has released their first ever digital version of its Resource Directory for seniors 60+, caregivers, and agencies that assist older adults.

The purpose of this digital edition is to share resources with current information. The QR Code and direct link will never change and will be periodically updated. We recommend revisiting the QR code or direct link for updated versions throughout the year.

The 2023-2025 and future printed editions of the Resource Directory are made available upon request at our Title III Nutrition Sites, events held throughout the year by different programs within EODD AAA, and available for pickup at 1012 North 38th Street in Muskogee.

If you are interested in obtaining the digital version via email or want to pick up the printed version, please contact our office at (918) 682-7891 or email info@eoddok.org.

The directories are authorized by Title III of the Federal Older Americans Act and Aging Services Division of the Oklahoma Department of Human Services.
