MEALS GIVE LATONIA THE STRENGTH SHE NEEDS
Latonia lives with congestive heart failure and a long list of related health issues. Because of her multiple health issues, Latonia often can’t stand long enough to cook for herself or her six-year-old son. With our heart-healthy medically tailored meals, Latonia is healthier and she and her son have enough to eat. “Before getting the meals, I was having to go see my doctor once or twice a month,” says Latonia.”Now I don’t have to go more than once every three or four months.”

Our Medically Tailored Meals
Medically tailored meals do more than alleviate hunger. They also improve health and enhance overall health in our communities and our state. Along with our sister agencies around the country, we collect data to evaluate the effectiveness and impact of our meals, and share the results to demonstrate the benefits of providing food as medicine to people who are chronically ill.
Medically tailored meals contribute to:

Lower health care costs

Reduced hospital readmission rates
