Nourish – Senior Nutrition Programs
Supplemental food is provided to seniors aged 60 and older through a government program called Nourish which is distributed once a month.
Food packages include a variety of foods, such as milk, juice, farina, oats, ready-to-eat cereal, rice, pasta, peanut butter, dry beans, canned meat, poultry or fish, and canned fruits and vegetables.
Nourish also provides guidance for preparing nutritious meals, dissemination of nutrition and health information by nutritionists, and referral to health care and social service agencies for other needed services.
