Maryland Access Point (MAP)

The place to start!

What kinds of services are available? Am I eligible for any drug discount programs? Does Mom meet eligibility requirements for services? What benefits may be available to help pay for care? Is there any transportation to help me get to a doctor’s appointment?

Maryland Access Point

MAP is based on the belief that older adults or adults with disabilities and their families should have options and choices for receiving services
MAP can provide information and assistance on numerous services available to older adults
Trained caring staff will help sort through options, make referrals, help with forms and follow up to be sure the right services are accessed
All assistance is prompt, completely confidential, friendly and thorough.

Whether the question is understanding Medicare, where to find leisure time activities, how to care for a frail older relative, how to locate senior housing, assisted living or a nursing home - MAP is the place to start.

Everyone is encouraged to use Maryland Access Point (MAP) - older adults, adults with disabilities, and those of any age who have questions or concerns about someone in need. No question or concern is too trivial or too involved.

2025-2026 Directory Information

Letter from the County Executive

I welcome you to the 2025-2026 edition of The Directory for Older Adults, Individuals with Disabilities, Veterans, and Caregivers.

I want to express my deep appreciation for the work of the Department of Aging and Disabilities. Their dedication is truly invaluable, and I hope that you will continue to engage with the wonderful services that they provide.

Recently we celebrated the reopening of the Lula G. Scott Community Center, which now has an expanded parking lot to accommodate parking needs and improved ADA accessibility. Here, the Department of Aging and Disabilities provides a hot lunch and activities for participants, and has onsite assistance to help older adults, caregivers, individuals with disabilities, and veterans navigate the resources they need to thrive.

Building on a commitment to serving our community's diverse needs, the Department of Aging and Disabilities has continued their work to host a variety of engaging programs, supporting our older adults and individuals with disabilities with opportunities to stay active, socialize, continue their education, and access the resources they need.

I look forward to this great work continuing, and I know that our Department of Aging and Disabilities will continue to find new, creative ways to serve our residents. This Directory will provide you with helpful information about our programs and offerings. Please stay connected and share your feedback. You can always connect with us at your local senior activity center, join the Area Agency on Aging Advisory Council, or call the Department of Aging and Disabilities at 410-222-4257. We're here to listen.

We hope you keep this Directory at your fingertips and use it often.
