Description:
Senior Dining includes both Senior Dining Centers and home delivered meals. The program provides low cost nutritious meals meeting one third of the recommended dietary allowance to persons 60 years of age and older, with emphasis placed on outreaching frail, isolated, homebound and disadvantaged older adults.
Senior Dining Centers are located at 10 sites throughout Waukesha County. In addition to a hot noon meal, the Senior Dining Centers provide nutrition education, health information and screening, outreach, and support to older adults and their families. Social and recreational activities are also provided at the dining center.
Senior Dining Centers are open to individuals age 60 or older and their spouse, regardless of their age. Limited government grants cover a portion of the meal costs. Confidential donations are accepted at each dining center. The suggested donation is $4.00. No eligible client will be denied a meal because of inability to contribute.
