CICOA is not an acronym. Our organization’s name is CICOA Aging & In-Home Solutions, pronounced sik-COE-ah. When the agency began in 1974, its legal name was the Central Indiana Council on Aging. Today, CICOA is no longer an acronym, but people still try to make it one.

Over the years we’ve tinkered with the name, to accurately represent the work we do and preserve the familiarity “CICOA” has built with the public. Our clients’ needs are constantly changing. As we evolve and expand to serve those needs, CICOA remains a steadfast name in our community, here for you and the ones you love.
