Americans Act Nutrition Program
"If
the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program was a restaurant, the
sign out front would say, 'Six billion served.' For 30 years, this
program not only has provided nutritious, healthy meals to older
Americans, but also has touched their lives by linking them to community
services that allow them to remain independent." - HHS Secretary
Tommy G. Secretary Thompson
"The
OAA Nutrition Program is a proven success story. It effectively
targets older adults who are poorer, more likely to live alone,
and are at higher nutritional risk," - Assistant Secretary
for Aging Josefina G. Carbonell
