With the federal government shutdown expected to pause SNAP benefits starting November 1, the Area Agency on Aging for SWFL is offering valuable assistance to older adults and caregivers with food access. Call our Helpline at 866-413-5337 to get connected to local food resources and support tailored to your needs.
AAASWFL’s congregate dining sites remain open and ready to serve eligible older adults aged 60 and over who reside within the service area. Unpaid caregivers under 60 who accompany an eligible older adult may also receive meal service. These sites offer hot, nutritious meals in a welcoming environment, along with opportunities for social connection and support. A list of dining sites by county is available on our website.
You are not alone. Our congregate dining sites and Helpline are here to support you through this temporary disruption.
