The Easton Council on Aging is the town department that provides or coordinates programs to meet the needs of Easton residents, age 60 or older. Services are provided with funding from municipal taxes, State and Federal grants along with private donations and volunteer services. Because of this support, many of the programs are offered free or at a nominal charge to our elderly residents. The Easton COA publishes a monthly newsletter, "The Coordinator", which is distributed throughout town and is mailed or e-mailed to Easton elderly and interested residents upon request. This newsletter includes information on programs and recreational activities as well as important topical information for seniors.

The Easton COA offers many services and programs dealing with Transportation, Nutrition, Finances, Outreach, Health, and Recreation.
