General Information

The Senior Nutrition Program provides meals to seniors in a community or home setting. Meals comply with the Dietary Guidelines For Americans and Myplate and provide at least one-third of the Recommended Dietary Allowances for an older person.

Home-Delivered Meals:
Home-delivered meals may be available for people if you are:

60 years of age or older, for the most part homebound, and unable to safely prepare meals on your own
Unable to go to a dining site
The spouse of someone who is eligible for meals
Adult living with a disability who lives with an eligible person who is receiving meals
Live in the service delivery area.

If eligible, meals can be ordered on a temporary basis, if you are homebound due to recovery from an illness or surgery or on a long-term basis, so that you can remain independent and in your home.

A general diet is provided, designed to meet one-third of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for persons 60 and over. Ground, pureed or gluten free food are not available. Click on link at bottom of page for menu.

Meals are available on a donation basis for eligible participants. The suggested donation is $4.00 per meal. If you are eligible for the meals but can't afford the suggested donation you will not be denied participation in the program.

Senior Meal Sites: A person age 60 or older and the spouse of that person (regardless of age) are eligible to participate at the Senior Meal Site and may participate on a donation basis. The ADRC operates three community meal sites. Enjoy lunch with old friends and meet new friends. Meal Sites are places in Florence County where people can have a nice lunch and enjoy some great company!
