Title III-C Senior Nutrition Program
The Title III Nutrition Meals Program is for persons age 60 or older. This also includes the underage spouse of a participant, handicapped / disabled individuals who live in housing facilities where congregate meals are provided, volunteers, or a disabled person living at home with a participant.
The Nutrition Program provides not only meals, but is also a method for inter-personal socialization. The program is an excellent tool also for reaching the aged for evaluation of other needs. CASE is the only Senior Meal provider in Mercer County and we have
operated this program since 1973.
Meals are served in five locations.

Salvation Army Building-Bluefield: 900 Highland Avenue, Bluefield, WV
