How to apply for Calhoun County Senior Citizens Association — Meals on Wheels + Hot Lunches + Calco Travel (Senior Travel Agency)
Calhoun County Senior Citizens Association, Inc. (CCSCA) — 501(c)(3) nonprofit; contracted local AAA delivery partner under Advantage Aging Solutions (PSA 2 Area Agency on Aging) for OAA Title III nutrition + case management + personal care + respite + senior services; operates the Calhoun County Senior Center at 16859 NE Cayson Street, Blountstown FL 32424; integrated three-division model (SCA + Calhoun Transit + Calco Travel)
Who it's for
Calhoun County Senior Citizens Association (CCSCA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit operating an integrated three-division senior services model: (1) the Senior Citizens Association — central hub for case management, congregate hot lunches, Meals on Wheels, companionship, recreation, health screenings, education, personal care, and respite care; (2) Calhoun Transit — door-to-door paratransit (fl.calhoun.calhoun_transit); and (3) Calco Travel — a SPECIALIZED SENIORS TRAVEL AGENCY operated by the nonprofit, organizing group trips, day excursions, and longer travel experiences for active Calhoun County seniors. Calco Travel is genuinely unique in the catalog — no peer FL Council on Aging operates a dedicated travel agency. Under the Older Americans Act program, CCSCA provides congregate meals, health support, recreation, and education at the Senior Center for those 60+. Extended services for homebound seniors include personal care, home delivered meals (Meals on Wheels), respite care, and more. CCSCA's main office hours are M-F 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Eligibility for the senior pathway is age 60+ and Calhoun County residency; home-delivered meals require documented homebound status. Apply by calling 850-674-4163 or toll-free 800-391-6134, or email ccsca@calhouncountyseniors.org.
CCSCA's integrated three-division model is genuinely distinctive — the same nonprofit that runs Meals on Wheels and paratransit also operates Calco Travel, a senior travel agency organizing group trips for active seniors. For seniors who are healthy enough to travel, Calco Travel provides social engagement opportunities that peer county Council on Aging organizations don't offer. Meals on Wheels home delivery requires documented homebound status. Congregate hot lunches at the Senior Center have a lower bar (60+ and ambulatory) — coordinate with Calhoun Transit for rides if not driving. Personal care and respite services use sliding-scale fees based on CCE/HCE/ADI sponsorship determination. The CCSCA office at 16859 NE Cayson Street in Blountstown is the central single-intake point for nutrition + transit + travel + personal care — meaningfully streamlined compared to peer counties where these services are siloed across multiple agencies.
What you'll need
- Proof of age 60+ (Florida driver's license, Florida ID, or birth certificate)
- Proof of Calhoun County residency (utility bill, lease, or government correspondence)
