Description
A twenty twenty-three study reports how senior meal programs reopened after the pandemic shutdowns. Group dining under the Older Americans Act had to halt in person. Programs kept serving through inventive delivery during closures. Surveys, focus groups, and interviews gather program experiences nationwide. Over five hundred programs complete the full survey. Most say they kept pandemic-era service changes for good. Grab-and-go meals drew new participants during the crisis.
Pairing meals with extras like entertainment helps retain people. Medically tailored and culturally fitting meals also spread. All adults over sixty qualify, yet attendance lags eligibility. The authors share practices that could strengthen programs nationally.
