Senior Services of Will County: Keeping Joliet Seniors Fed, Connected, and Independent

Headquartered on North Center Street in Joliet, Senior Services of Will County delivers thousands of warm Meals on Wheels dinners to homebound older adults every week. Beyond nutrition, volunteer drivers provide daily welfare checks and friendly human contact that combat social isolation.

For older Joliet residents wishing to remain in their homes with dignity, Senior Services of Will County provides an essential network of care. Operating out of 251 N. Center Street, the agency oversees the Meals on Wheels nutrition program, coordinating routes across the city where volunteers deliver hot, balanced lunches and shelf-stable groceries directly to homebound seniors.

A delivery is often the only personal contact a homebound resident receives that day, serving as a critical safety check in extreme weather. The downtown center also offers free Medicare counseling, fitness and socialization classes, and caregiver respite resources.
