Senior Nutrition Program

The Program provides meals in congregate (group) settings where activities and services for seniors are available; nutrition education, screening & counseling are also available. The program also serves as a central contact for home delivered meals, referring seniors to Meals on Wheels that serve their addresses. Meals are nutritious and suitable for persons with diabetes, heart disease and hypertension because they meet federal standards that include each meal providing at least 1/3 of the recommended dietary allowances for older adults and complying with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Kosher, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese meals and programming targeted to these ethnic groups are available at certain sites.
