About This Organization

Aging True Community Senior Services is a major non-profit elder services organization that has served Jacksonville and Northeast Florida seniors for more than 50 years. Operating as the designated Community Care for the Elderly (CCE) Lead Agency and Title III-C nutrition contractor in partnership with ElderSource and the Florida Department of Elder Affairs, Aging True administers Duval County's official Meals on Wheels and senior community dining programs.

The organization's nutrition division prepares and delivers more than 1,000 nutritious meals each weekday to homebound seniors across Jacksonville. Meals are crafted by licensed dietitians to supply balanced macronutrients, essential vitamins, and minerals while moderating sodium and refined carbohydrates. Therapeutic menus accommodate diabetic, cardiac, renal, and pureed dietary needs.

In addition to home delivery, Aging True operates congregate dining sites and senior nutrition cafes located throughout Jacksonville community centers, churches, and residential facilities. These vibrant neighborhood hubs provide healthy hot lunches accompanied by social games, health education lectures, and fitness classes that foster vital community connections among older adults.

Located on St. Johns Avenue in Jacksonville's historic Avondale district, Aging True provides intake screenings, comprehensive case management, and caregiver respite. Meals on Wheels is funded through federal Older Americans Act allocations, City of Jacksonville senior grants, and private donations, ensuring that vulnerable, homebound seniors receive daily nourishment regardless of income.
