A 25,500-square-foot facility, The Life Center features a commercial-grade kitchen complete with state-of-the-art appliances and a serving line for congregate meals for seniors. The Nutrition Support Program will nearly double the number of meals provided to seniors by 2020, as well as provide volunteer organizations with a nutrition center to prepare meals for the homebound and serve as a learning center by offering healthy cooking classes for seniors.
