Meals for Older Adults

Older Adult Centers

Older Adults who are able to travel to older adult centers (OACs) can participate in the lunch program at their nearest OAC. Locate an Older Adult Center near you or by calling 311 or visiting 311 Online.

Home Delivered Meals

If you are 60 years of age or older and have difficulty preparing meals, you may be able to receive nutritionally balanced home-delivered meals funded by the Department for the Aging (NYC Aging).

Eligibility must be determined by a NYC Aging-funded case management agency. Eligible older adults may choose to receive daily delivery of hot meals or twice-weekly delivery of fresh-frozen meals.

Please visit NYC Aging's website to learn more or to request home delivered meals for an older adult or call 311.
