Nutrition Programs
The Area 1 Agency on Aging will provide $603,500 in funding during fiscal year 2012-2013 for the senior lunch and home-delivered meal programs for seniors in Humboldt and Del Norte counties. During 2010-2011 providers of senior lunch programs (Humboldt Senior Resource Center, Del Norte Senior Center, Healy Senior Center and K’ima:w Medical Center) prepared and served over 60,000 senior lunches and supplied nearly 70,000 home-delivered meals.
Title III Elderly Nutrition Programs are funded through the Older Americans Act and provide senior lunches and home-delivered meals to people 60 years of age or older. A home-delivered meal is available to individuals who are home-bound and to those who seldom leave the home except for medical appointments. Although a modest donation is requested for the meal, no eligible person is denied a meal because of ability or willingness to donate.
