Elderly Nutrition Program

Our Goals:  To promote, maintain and improve the health and well-being of older adults through the provision of a nutritionally balanced meal five days per week in strategically located sites throughout Harnett county.

To reduce the isolation experienced by many older adults through opportunities for social interaction by participation in the nutrition program.

To provide nutrition education and supportive service activities in order to enhance the older adult’s ability to remain independent.

To enable impaired older adults to remain at home as long as possible and facilitate the discharge of older adults from hospitals and care providing facilities.

We serve seniors, 60 and older, throughout Harnett County a lunch-time meal five days a week.  If you or someone you know needs more information about our program, please call: Harnett County Department on Aging, attention Debby Vaughn, at 910-893-7578 or 910-814-6072 or email: dvaughn@harnett.org.

Interested in Volunteering to deliver meals?  We are always in need of volunteers throughout our county to deliver meals to our elderly homebound clients. If you are interested, please contact the Harnett County Elderly Nutrition Program at 910-814-6072 or your local senior center.
