This week, Central Arizona Aging (CAA) was pleased to welcome JoAnna Mendoza, Arizona Congressional District 6 candidate, and U.S. Congresswoman Suzan DelBene, representing Washington’s 1st Congressional District, to our central kitchen, Meals on Wheels Central Arizona.
During their visit, we discussed the growing nutritional needs of older adults, increasing waitlists for services, and the unique challenges facing seniors in our rural communities. We also shared how CAA staff, our Board of Directors and partners are working hard to address these needs and support the well-being of our aging population.
Our guests rolled up their sleeves alongside CAA Board Chairwoman Belinda Akes, helping dish and seal meals for delivery to seniors in Hayden, Winkelman, Mammoth, and San Manuel! 🙌
We are so grateful for their time, hands-on support, and interest in the work we do. Every meal makes a difference in helping older adults maintain their health, independence, and dignity.
Together, we can continue strengthening our communities and ensuring our seniors receive the care and nutrition they deserve. 💙
