Meal Sites

The Waupaca County Elderly Nutrition Program serves delicious and nutritious meals 5 days per week over the noon hour. The Nutrition Program features a congregate dining option and a home delivered meal service option. Those that are interested in the program may call the Waupaca County Aging & Disability Resource Unit for additional information. Listed below are the eligibility criteria for both the congregate and home delivered meal service options. Each potential Nutrition Program participant will complete an eligibility assessment with a Social Worker or a Nutrition Site Manager. Assessment questions include person’s name, date of birth, emergency contact information, if the person has enough food at home in case of an emergency, if the person has any potential allergies and more questions. Our Home Delivered Meals are delivered by friendly, background-checked Volunteers. Our home delivered meals are more than a meal when they’re delivered by a friendly, smiling face. Home Delivered Meal participants are required to be home at the time of delivery (typically 11:00am-1:00pm). If participants are not home and no one is at their home to receive the meal, a meal cannot be left unattended due to food safety concerns. Reservations for meal service are required and cancellations are required the day before an absence is expected.
