COMMUNITY RESOURCES

Food is life. At The Help Center NC, we strive to ensure that no senior experiences hunger. We do this through our Meals on Wheels and Support Services programs as well as referrals to other agencies and food banks. For many, meals are also an opportunity to socialize with church groups, volunteers or with the delivery driver. Through our database with over 7,000 resources, we can connect seniors to a variety of food assistance programs in the County.

There are also options for our seniors who maybe looking for a ride, a place to stay, exercise programs, information on support groups, housing, activities and more is available on our information and community resource data base.
