Neighborhood Centers

The Area Agency on Aging provides nutritious meals at seven Neighborhood Centers in Johnson County. In addition, Neighborhood Centers offer a variety of services, activities and educational programs for older individuals in the community. 

Neighborhood Centers are open 9 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. A hot lunch is available for anyone age 60 or older and their spouse Monday through Friday. Breakfast is also offered Tuesday through Thursday.

The hot lunch is served daily at 11:30 a.m. Call the Neighborhood Center by 10 a.m. the day before to make a reservation.

Make a Donation: The suggested donation is $3 per lunch and $2 per breakfast. No one is denied a meal if they are unable to donate. People younger than age 60 are also welcome to eat lunch but must pay the full cost of the meal.

Meals are funded in part through the Older Americans Act and the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services (KDADS).
