Nutrition Services

Imagine...

You're a citizen of Monroe or Owen County, 55 years or older, and it's almost noon and time for lunch. You're not quite able to prepare an entire meal by yourself. Maybe you'll just skip lunch today.

Let Area 10 Agency on Aging provide a change of pace through our
Nutrition Services Program, one of our In-Home Services. Our hot, nutritious meals
are served Monday through Friday at our five nutrition sites:

Spencer Senior Center

Join us at a congregate site today and eat a nutritious meal while socializing with friends. Our "Mobile Meals" are delivered to your door if you are homebound and have difficulty preparing nutritious meals. Our goal is to ensure that recipients receive a well-balanced, nutritious meal. While there is no set price for the meals, we do request a donation of $2.25 whether you're eating at a congregate site or receiving a mobile meal. If you'd like to donate more to help cover the cost of the meals and our Nutrition Services, that's wonderful, but if you aren't able to donate the $2.25, that's okay, too. We will not turn someone away for inability to pay for a meal. Middleway House in Bloomington and Ellettsville provide the catering.

What You Do
It's easy! To sign up, call Area 10 to sign up and ask about our Nutrition Services.

What We Do For You
The Area 10 staff member who receives your call gives information to the Nutrition Director. A Case Manager may contact the homebound person and help arrange services with the Nutrition Director, who orders and arranges meal deliveries. A Meal Delivery volunteer will begin making meal deliveries to the home, or you can begin eating at one of the congregate sites.
