Overview

The Home Delivered Meals (Non-Formula and Formula) State Funding provides essential meal delivery services for homebound older adults in Illinois. This program, funded by the state as a matching share of federal funds, not only ensures that nutritious meals reach those in need but also allows volunteers to check on the welfare of the elderly. Eligible applicants include Area Agencies on Aging, government organizations, and nonprofit organizations.

Home Delivered Meals (Non-Formula and Formula) State Funding
When older adults cannot leave their homes and cannot personally prepare nutritious meals, home delivered meals are an available option. Volunteers who deliver meals to homebound older persons have an important opportunity to check on the welfare of the homebound elderly and are encouraged to report any health or other problems that they may observe during their visits. This funding is the state matching share of the Federal Home Delivered Meal funding.
