Congregate Meals

Various communities throughout Gilliam, Hood River, Morrow, Sherman, Umatilla, Wasco, and Wheeler counties offer nutritious meals in a group setting for individuals age 60 and above, and their spouses (regardless of age). Frequently, the mealtime also includes recreational and social activities, as well as nutrition/health education. 

Home Delivered Meals

This program is more than just a meal! It is often the highlight of an isolated and lonely senior's day. It also fosters independent living, a sense of security, and helps to prevent premature or unnecessary admittance into a care facility.

Supplemental Food Assistance
(Food Pantries)

Supplemental food is available at various locations throughout Umatilla, Morrow, Gilliam, and Wheeler counties to individuals and families who are in immediate need of food.
