About Us
LeadingAge Missouri is a trade association dedicated solely to serving the needs of providers of health care, housing, and services for Missouri’s elderly.

LeadingAge Missouri's mission is for its members to be the leaders in Missouri in the delivery of innovative, quality long-term health care, housing, and services for older adults. LeadingAge Missouri assists its members in providing quality services for the elderly by:

  • Advocating for public policies that:
    • Provide for appropriate reimbursement levels for care and services
    • Promote the development of a seamless continuum of care
    • Allow consumers to receive care in the most cost-effective, appropriate, and least-restrictive setting
  • Safeguarding the industry from laws and regulations that impede a long-term care provider’s ability to provide quality care in an efficient and cost-effective manner
  • Providing information, programs and services so members can proactively implement systems and processes to achieve regulatory compliance
  • Promoting innovative and creative care delivery models
  • Increasing the public’s awareness of the unique value offered by not-for-profit providers
  • Enabling members to maximize their limited financial resources and direct them toward quality resident care
Preparing members to proactively meet the challenges they face from a changing demographic marketplace and increasing regulatory climate.
