County of San Diego: Home-Delivered Meals
The County's Aging & Independence Services department contracts with community partners to provide home-delivered hot lunches, for eligible adults. Adults 60 and older who are homebound due to illness or disability can ask to have meals delivered to them if they are registered with a County of San Diego nutrition provider that offers this service. Once a request for a home-delivered meal is made, a representative from the nutrition program will visit the older adult to assess the need. If appropriate for the program, a hot meal is delivered each week day and frozen meals are provided for the weekends.
Contact your nearest home-delivered meal provider to inquire about eligibility. Click the button below to review the list.
