AARP AZ applauds Governor Doug Ducey’s decision to release $5.3 Million for Meals on Wheels. These resources will help make sure that seniors get nutritious meals delivered to their homes so they remain safe and healthy.

These resources will also help the nonprofits who provide meals on wheels with the resources to meet the ongoing demand.
