About Always Well

Always Well is the designated area agency on aging (AAA) for Southwest Colorado. We are rooted in the Older Americans Act (OAA) of 1965 - a landmark piece of legislation built on a simple, powerful principle: 

Older adults are entitled to good health, independence and dignity. 

Always Well is the state designated architect for aging services across the San Juan Basin.
