What it does

This bill would require the Department for the Aging (DFTA) to establish a grab-and-go meal program, which would provide daily meals available for pick up at participating older adult centers for members of the centers. This bill would also require DFTA to make available to every participating older adult center a notice that provides information on the grab-and-go meal program. Every participating older adult center would be required to post the notice in a conspicuous location.
