Home Delivered Meals

One nutritionally balanced home delivered meal per day plus breakfast is available as needed for frail homebound seniors.  Meals are delivered to seniors age sixty (60) and older who are unable to prepare their own meals, cannot shop for food, and do not have anyone to prepare meals or shop for them. 

Congregate Meals

To meet the nutritional needs of the elderly, DOSS has established twenty five (25) Senior Meal Sites, including seven (7) located in Adult Day Care Centers.  They provide a complete senior meal that includes a substantial lunch and nutrition services to several groups in underserved areas.  Seniors age sixty (60) and older are encouraged to dine together in a social atmosphere. Meals are served Monday through Friday.  Reservations must be made at least one (1) working day in advance.  Transportation may be available through Palm Tran Connection. For additional information, please call 355-4746 or 355-4755.

Volunteers

The Congregate Meals Program could not function without the assistance that many participants offer.  Programming, table setting, serving, cleaning up, and record keeping duties are shared by persons who are willing to volunteer.  Your offer to help would be gratefully received.
