Mission Statement:
The St. Joseph County Commission on Aging is responsible for providing services to senior citizens to enhance seniors’ quality of life, at each stage of aging.
Nutrition Services:
Congregate meals are provided in a group setting, to promote socialization among the participants. The meal consists of a hot meal, which meets 1/3 of the RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) daily nutrition requirement for adults. The Congregate program includes restaurant vouchers, and other special event functions.
Home Delivered Meals:
The Home Delivered Meals program provides at least one nutritionally sound meal per day to adults. The meal is delivered to the client’s home and provides a minimum of one-third of the current recommended dietary allowance (RDA).
