Dining is about much more than nutrition. It's about fellowship, culture, memories and personal preference.

🍎 September is Hunger Action Month 🍎
No one should have to choose between paying bills and putting food on the table.
During Hunger Action Month, we're raising awareness about resources that can help older adults access nutritious food and support their overall well-being.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) may help eligible individuals and families stretch their food budget and purchase healthy foods. If you or someone you know is struggling to make ends meet, help may be available.
📞 Call 1-800-AGE-LINE today to see if you qualify for SNAP and to be screened for senior services.
A simple phone call could connect you to programs that help you maintain your health, independence and quality of life.
Together, we can take action against hunger and ensure older adults have access to the nutrition they need to thrive.

AGEISM AWARENESS DAY | 2026

What if we stopped talking about aging like it is something happening to "other people?"

We are all aging.

Ageism happens when we make assumptions about what it means to grow older. But growing older doesn’t make us less valuable, less capable, or less worthy of being seen and heard.

We are parents, grandparents, neighbors, mentors, volunteers, caregivers, leaders and friends.

And sometimes we need support.

Senior services help us stay connected, independent, healthy and engaged in our communities.

If you or someone you know needs help finding senior services in Jefferson County, call 1-800-AGE-LINE to be screened and connected to available resources.

Let’s change the way we talk about aging -- because we’re all doing it.❤️

Did You Know? SenioRx Is Not Strictly for Seniors!
Many people are surprised to learn that the SenioRx program helps individuals of various ages access life-saving medications through Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs).
Our team is currently assisting clients with PAP re-enrollments, an important process that helps ensure continued access to prescription medications at little to no cost for those who qualify. Since many PAPs require annual renewal, staying enrolled is essential to avoid interruptions in medication coverage.
If you or someone you know is struggling to afford prescription medications, contact us to learn more about available resources and assistance programs.
Call 1-800-AGE-LINE to be screened for SenioRx and other senior services today!

🍎 Health Literacy Month: Know What’s on Your Plate

Health literacy isn't just about understanding what your doctor says. It also means having the information you need to make choices about the food you eat.

At our senior centers, meals are more than a plate of food. They are an opportunity to connect with others and receive monthly nutrition education.

💬 Learn: What does this ingredient do for my body?
🥦 How can I add more fruits and vegetables?
💧 How much water do I need?
🍽️ What does a balanced meal look like for me?

Let's keep learning, eating and growing together!

Call 1-800-AGE-LINE to be screened for senior services or visit https://www.uwca.org/programs/area-agency-on-aging/area-senior-centers/ to find your nearest Senior Center!
