What We Do
Our core services range from community based to in-home
Since our original inception in 1973, as just two dining centers, the goal of serving out county’s seniors was clear.
Our Mission
To stimulate, serve and assist older persons (60+), especially those at risk due to health and economic reasons, to achieve their desired independence and dignity through client advocacy, assessment and provision of needed services.
PEACE OF MIND, IS SOMETIMES A SMILE AWAY
“To have that one meal a day and have someone check in on you every day is wonderful. It’s actually hard, when you live alone, to cook a well-balanced diet for yourself and include all of the food groups… I thought, ‘I’m going to try it,’ I did and I’ve very pleased.”
