The Henderson County Council on Aging is diligently working to restore and reopen all senior services as quickly and safely as possible.
Meals on Wheels
Community concerns are being heard, and COAHC is working hard to resume Meals on Wheels operations ASAP. The team is actively reaching out to assess the needs of all clients following Hurricane Helene, checking on their well-being and prioritizing social work follow-ups for those in need. Shelf-stable meals have been delivered. The team and volunteers are on standby and look forward to resuming deliveries
as soon as possible.

Due to the impacts of Hurricane Helene, the Community Dining Program was temporarily closed. For those in need of hot meals, World Central Kitchen is providing support at First United Methodist Church in Hendersonville.
