Senior Nutrition Resources

Senior Congregate Nutrition Meal Sites

Area 4 Agency on Aging funds congregate nutrition programs located throughout the seven county area, at sites which are easily accessible to seniors. Meals are offered at senior/community centers throughout the County. The opportunity to socialize with peers is as important a part of the program as the meal itself. Special programs, cards, games, or time to "just chat" are available at the nutrition sites during the week.

Home-Delivered Meals

The Home Delivered Meals Program offers temporary or long term service to those 60 years and older and their spouse regardless of age, who through illness or recent hospitalization, cannot prepare nutritious meals for themselves and do not have friends, relatives or paid help to provide assistance. Volunteer drivers deliver the meals to clients on a regular schedule on weekdays. A frozen meal is offered for legal holidays.

Brown Bag Food Program

Providing food services to low income senior citizens since 1985. We place emphasis on the importance on the part of the elderly to remain self-sufficient by shopping for their food through this program and cooking at home. CRC Food Bank is the clearinghouse for donated foods in a three county region and operates five sites in Placer County and three sites in Yuba County.
