In New York City, checks can be picked up at
congregate meal sites designated by the NYC Department for the Aging, as well as through Commodity Supplemental Food Programs run through the State Department of Health.
A combination of local mayors, town supervisor and county legislators have volunteered to help out at a
congregate dining
site, make deliveries at a senior apartment building or go out on one of the home delivered
meal routes to show their support for the community's seniors.
