How to apply for Senior Dining & Home-Delivered Meals — Wisconsin

Wisconsin Department of Health Services / county aging units

Who it's for

Wisconsin's elderly nutrition program serves adults 60 and older (and their spouses) through senior dining sites and home-delivered meals (Meals on Wheels) in every county. There is no income test — meals are provided on a voluntary-donation basis. Home delivery is for those who cannot get out; the county aging unit or ADRC signs people up.

Home-delivered meals depend on assessed need and route availability; the county aging unit decides.

What you'll need

  • None — the aging unit confirms age and delivery need
