of their meal. While we encourage all clients to donate something
toward the cost of their meals, we will not deny service to a client
who is unable to afford the total cost of his/her meals. client

What type of meals do we serve? |
|
|
|
|
Each meal is prepared by an institutional kitchen under the supervision
of a licensed dietitian and must meet 1/3 of the Recommended Daily
Allowance. A regular meal consists of a hot entree, a serving of
vegetables, a serving of starch, dessert (often fruit), and milk or
juice. Some special diets can be accommodated (e.g. diabetic, low
sodium).
