    Our Mission

    The Webster Co Senior Services is a program designed to address the needs of senior citizens in both home and senior facilities.

    The history of the program can be traced back to 1965 when the US Congress enacted the Older Americans Act. This act recognized the value and worth of senior citizens and declared a list of objectives to ensure the dignity and realm of opportunities for aging Americans to be enhanced and maintained.

    Meal Programs

    Webster County Senior Center provides "Meals-on-Wheels" to our homebound seniors and deliver to their home.

    We also serve daily meals at our sites for a suggested donation for a $1.50.
    These are sites where the seniors meet for a meal, activities, trips, bingo, cards, cornhole baseball, dancing, computer labs, exercise classes, workout equipment and companionship.
