Meals on Wheels San Diego County's mission is to support the independence and well-being of seniors who choose to age in their home or for those that are unable to afford quality institutional care and must remain at home. Many seniors experience chronic illnesses and disabilities that often make activities of daily living difficult. Meals on Wheels San Diego County is part of the community safety net serving older adults in the home with care services that include the delivery of up to two fresh meals a day, daily safety checks (with referral to other social services if necessary) and a friendly visit.
Meals on Wheels supports the independence and well-being of seniors by providing regular nutrition and daily contact and wellness checks by caring volunteers. Meals prepared using Area Agency on Aging Nutrition Center guidelines are delivered to seniors homes throughout San Diego County.
Meals on Wheels San Diego County serves all of San Diego County, including the 3,049 square miles of rural and unincorporated areas. Of all seniors served, 84% are considered extremely-low to low income according to the 2017 income guidelines by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). We subsidize more than 60% of the costs of meals, delivery, and other services provided, regardless of a seniors' ability to pay. Further subsidies are provided for seniors who are experiencing severe financial difficulties. For fiscal year 2020, we served over 4,250 homebound seniors throughout San Diego County with 561,928 meals, daily safety checks and friendly visits using 3,292 trained volunteers. Also, during the past year, we met a significant increase for our services during the Covid-19 public health emergency. Meals on Wheels clients report improved health, security and independence. For millions of Americans, Meals on Wheels programs across the country are literally the difference between remaining in their own homes and needing to relocate to a nursing facility. The nutritious meal, friendly visit and safety check help them cope with three of the biggest threats of aging: hunger, isolation and loss of independence. Research proves that when seniors have the right support, they gain greater quality of life, need fewer hospital stays and live longer.
