LEWISTON — SeniorsPlus is accepting applications for the Meals on Wheels program serving older adults and individuals with disabilities in Androscoggin, Franklin, and Oxford Counties.

Meals on Wheels at SeniorsPlus has the capacity to serve more individuals in its tri-county service area. Meals on Wheels is a need-based rather than a financially-based program. Individuals are encouraged to contact SeniorsPlus to find out if they are eligible.

The provision of nutritious meals can keep people living independently at home, avoiding costly long-term care facilities. Every visit provides a meal that offers one-third of the recommended daily nutritional intake and can be tailored to specific health conditions. The program also serves as a safety check and social interaction. Meals on Wheels is more than just a meal; It’s a lifeline for independence and well-being.

“We are honored to deliver nutritious meals to the homes of aging adults and individuals with disabilities,” said Janis Walker, Nutrition Services Director. “Our program addresses nutrition, provides essential human connections, and enriches the lives of all clients, their families, and the entire community.”

To learn more, to refer an older adult or an individual with disabilities who could benefit from Meals on Wheels, or to volunteer, visit seniorsplus.org or call 207-795-4010.
