Nutrition & Wellness Programs

The Area 1 Agency on Aging will provide $513,000 in funding during fiscal year 2010-2011 for the senior lunch and home-delivered meal programs for seniors in Humboldt and Del Norte counties. During 2009-2010 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 more than 81,000 home-delivered meals.

Funding for these programs was reduced by 15% this year from 09-10 support levels. Nutritional programs, though strained by growing numbers of seniors needing home-delivered meals, successfully reduced both the numbers of seniors unable to participate in the programs and the amount of time seniors spent on lunch program waiting lists.

Title III Elderly Nutrition Programs are funded through the Older Americans Act. Senior lunches and home-delivered meals are available to people 60 years of age or older. A home-delivered meal is available to individuals who are home-bound-those 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.
