The Tarrant County Area Agency on Aging has 4 primary ways it interacts with the public and maintains age-friendliness with its residents
- Benefits Counciling: Get free one-on-one advice about Medicare, Medicaid, HMOs, QMB/SLMB, disputes over hospital bills, Food Stamps and more by calling a state-certified benefits counselor
- Long Term care Ombudsman: If you have a problem with a long-term care facility, assisted living facilities or other types of residential facility that you can’t resolve yourself, you can call a local ombudsman – a specially-trained advocate who can explain rights, resources and procedures and help identify, investigate and resolve complaints of long-term care facility residents.

The reason why I feel that it's age friendly cause I live here my whole 46 years of my life I raise 3 daughter in 1 son also 5 grandchildren I have work with elderly for over 30 years so I experience a lot of changes good and bad but I wouldn't change anything
