Senior Nutrition
Improving the health and wellbeing of seniors at least 60 years of age through nutritious food.
The State of Senior Hunger
According to Feeding America, 7.3% of Idaho seniors experience food insecurity – the lack of access at times to enough food to support a healthy lifestyle. This means that over 33,700 Idaho seniors are at risk of not getting enough to eat. Many more are making tough choices between the nutrition they need and other basic needs including medication, and paying for medical and utility bills. Hunger increases the risk of numerous health problems, such as asthma, depression, and congestive heart failure.
