Aging Resource Provider List

The Madison County Public Health Homemaker Program will end on June 13, 2025.

At its September 4, 2024 meeting, the Madison County Board of Health made the difficult decision to sundown the program. A subcommittee was appointed for the program's phase out process, and final details were brought for discussion and approved at the November 6th board meeting. The decision stems from the elimination of state LPHS funding for the homemaker program, as well as the reduction of county funding due to bipartisan state legislation restricting tax revenues.

The Madison County program currently serves 27 residents county-wide.

On November 12th, the enrollees were sent notification and information regarding the program closure including a list of local providers and resources to help replace the services provided by the county.
