The Area Office on Aging (AOoA) was chosen
as having the best Web site for those age 50 and over in the
nation with its selection as the Best of Show National
Mature Media Award winner in the Web site category. The
National Mature Media Awards is the nation’s largest awards
program that annually recognizes the best marketing,
communications, educational materials and programs for
adults age 50 and older. The Area Office on Aging’s Web
site was selected out of about 1,000 entries that were
judged by a panel of mature market experts from across the
country for overall excellence of design, content,
creativity, and relevance to the senior market. This Web
site beat out competing entries from the Web sites from
national giants like AARP, as well as senior housing
organizations like National Lutheran Communities, insurance
companies, hospices, home care companies and many others.
The development of the brochure was a joint
effort between the AOoA and Madhouse Creative LLC. The Web
site can be viewed at:

AOoA President/CEO Billie Johnson said, "When
we re-designed our Web site, we set out with the goal of
making it as easy as possible for older northwest Ohioans
and their family caregivers to access the information,
services and events available to them. We are thrilled that
both people locally and nationally love our re-designed Web
site. The response to the new Web site has been tremendous
with the number of unique visitors increasing by 75 percent
from its launch the end of 2016 to now having over 4,600
unique visitors to the Web site in August 2017."
