Senior
Nutrition...
The
Senior Nutrition Program at Community Action is a very important part of many lives in our
community. These services help seniors remain independent and active. The Senior
Nutrition program is partially funded by the
Area Agency on Aging for Lincolnland.
Meals are
available for a $3.00 suggested donation. No individual will ever be
denied for inability to make the suggested donation.
To qualify, one must be 60 years of age or older, or be married to a
participant. There is no income restriction to receive this services.
Our Senior Nutrition Program
is one that requires local donations to maintain our level of services. Please
see our fundraising page for more information on how you can help!

Our staff

easier because...
"They have enabled me to
have a more balanced diet."
