📢Join us tomorrow for the kickoff call for the 2025 Celebration of the Senior Nutrition Program!
The 2025 theme, A Place at the Table, recognizes the importance of local nutrition programs and the meals being served in communities across the country. ACL, its partners, and local programs can use this theme to highlight several key topics, like the benefits of getting to know your community and program participants and how coming together over meals can improve health and well-being.
