Eldercare Locator

by US Administration for Community Living

Verified Pro Mon-Fri 9AM-8PM ET4.8(85,000 reviews)

Editor's Note · Marcus Whitfield

The Eldercare Locator stands apart as a completely free federal resource that connects you to vetted local agencies rather than providing direct care—think of it as a nationwide referral desk staffed by specialists who know your county's options. With coverage across all 50 states and a Spanish-language line, it's particularly valuable if you're starting from scratch and need help navigating what's actually available near an aging parent. Most callers mention the patience of the advisors and the quality of the local referrals, though you'll still need to vet and arrange services yourself.

Eldercare Locator is a public service of the US Administration for Community Living connecting older Americans + caregivers to local services in every community.
