In 2024 we held three robust discussions on councils on aging dining program. These overviews brought together dozens of COAs with many questions, suggestions and desires to create or improve current options.

Moving forward, MCOA will host bimonthly virtual meetings that are topic specific.

  1. Beginning December 12, 2024, these will be held every other month on the second Thursday, 2-3pm. Mark your calendars for next month’s meeting and the 2025 dates: 2/13, 4/10, 6/12, 8/14 and 12/11. December’s meeting registration will be out soon!
  2. Complete the survey below and share which topics are most important to you.
  3. Through the meetings and surveys, we’ll compile resource listings for each topic (recipes, equipment procurement, reservation/payment systems, etc.)
  4. Have a resource item to share? Email it to tara@mcoaonline.org. Start today and email your favorite recipe, cookbook or recipe website!

As promised at MCOA’s dining program workshop, here is the kitchen measurements reference poster.
