La Comida de California Overview
La Comida de California is a nonprofit organization that has supported the nutritional and social needs of seniors in Palo Alto for 54 years. The mission of La Comida is to promote the health and well-being of older adults by providing nutritionally balanced, delicious, fresh, high-quality, low-cost meals; linking participants to other agencies serving seniors and their families by offering resources; and providing a setting that encourages socializing to address isolation and mental health issues.
