Placer County nonprofit loses meal delivery contract
By Anita Creamer, Sacramento Bee
Seniors First, the nonprofit agency that administers Placer County’s federally funded seniors programs, lost its contract late last week to deliver meals to more than 100 homebound seniors.
The Area 4 Agency on Aging board instead awarded the Meals on Wheels contract for the Placer suburbs and foothills communities to Meals on Wheels by ACC, which since 2010 has been the senior nutrition provider for Sacramento County.
The $85,000 contract for the remainder of the fiscal year ends June 30 but can be renewed for up to three years.
