About SWIRCA & More

Southwestern Indiana Regional Council on Aging (SWIRCA & More) is a not-for-profit, 501(c)3, public service organization that focuses it's efforts on empowering seniors and people with disabilities to remain living safely in their own homes by providing information and supportive services.

SWIRCA & More is Indiana's 16th Area Agency on Aging covering a six county area including Gibson, Perry, Posey, Spencer, Vanderburgh and Warrick.

Since our beginning in 1974, SWIRCA & More has dedicated itself to helping individuals maintain their independence in the face of disabilities and aging. Over the decade, our services and the scope of those we reach has grown tremendously. Here our last year's statistics:
