Services: Meals on Wheels

The Nutrition Program, offered by Will County Senior Community Services, Inc. serves the entire County of Will. Nutrition services are provided to assist older adults to live independently by promoting better health through improved nutrition and reduced isolation through a program coordinated with other supportive services.


MEALS
Our meals are designed to be nutritious and cater to the adult appetite. The menu is low in salt, calorie-controlled and individually portioned. Most importantly, each meal is nutritionally balanced and tasty. We also offer a diabetic dessert for appropriate clients.
A complete nutritional analysis is available for clients to discuss with their physician or dietitian.

COST
The Nutrition Program is a donation based program. All participants are asked to make a donation towards the cost of the meal. No one will be denied services if they are unable or unwilling to make a donation.

Home Delivered Meal participants are sent a monthly donation reminder. The donation reminder indicates the amount of meals that were served and a total suggested donation. Cash and checks are gladly accepted.

Congregate Dining locations have a suggested donation that is posted at each site. All donations are confidential. Cash and Checks are gladly accepted.
