Seniors in Piatt County will be glad to hear that a local non-profit is expanding what it offers in the area. 

Shelly Tolly with OSF Peace Meal indicates that while home-delivered meals are a big focus of the organization, they are encouraging seniors with the ability to visit their local congregate sites, including a new location in Monticello, to engage in social interactions over their meals.

Tolly reminds there are congregate programs in smaller communities as well, such as Ludlow, Paxton, and Rantoul. She says to call or visit them online to find your local program. 

Peace Meal clients must be at least 60 years old, and Tolly explains their home-delivered meals service is reserved for clients who have issues getting out of their home.
