RESOURCE DIRECTORY FOR OLDER ADULTS

NUTRITION PROGRAM FOR THE ELDERLY

This section lists congregate (group) nutrition sites which serve a hot meal daily to county residents 60 years of age and older, and home-delivered meal services which deliver a hot meal daily to the homes of isolated frail residents 60 years of age and older.  Voluntary donations are suggested, and are used to expand the program.  By regulation these meals provide one-third of the recommended daily dietary allowance.  Call the Nutrition Site Manager at least one day in advance (before noon) for reservations.

Note: Lunch is the meal that will be served,
unless otherwise indicated.
