There are twelve non-profit organizations that provide hot, nutritious meals, Monday through Friday, in over 100 community dining centers throughout the City. These community dining centers also offer seniors an opportunity to socialize and participate in educational and cultural activities in their own communities. Transportation to and from the community dining centers may also be available at some locations. The Home-Delivered Meals program provides one hot, nutritious meal daily, five days a week, to participating homebound seniors who, because of physical or mental disability, are unable to attend a community dining center.
