Nutrition

Voluntary Action Center (VAC) provides nutritious food as well as social contact to the homebound and elderly through our Meals on Wheels program. VAC also offers a community congregate luncheon site for those who are able to gather for lunch and social activities. The goal of our nutritional program is to help our elderly live independently in their homes and communities while monitoring their nutritional intake and providing healthy meals for their overall well being.

All of the meals are designed to meet one-third of the federal nutritional Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) standards.

VAC’s nutrition programs are open to senior citizens 60 years of age or older and their spouses. Persons with disabilities may also be eligible.

There is a suggested donation for the meal, but no one is refused a meal based on their income level or ability to monetarily support the programs.

The nutrition programs are successful because of the dedicated volunteers from within the community. These community volunteers contribute immensely to our nutrition programs to ensure our senior citizens have a hot meal for lunch every day.

Our nutrition services also expand into the community by providing meals for local daycare and county programs. The quality of these meals equal the high standards Voluntary Action Center adheres to for all of its programs.
