The Oakdale Senior Center has partnered with the Area Agency on Aging to offer weekly “to-go” food for local senior citizens since last April. Once the Senior Center on East A Street closed due to the pandemic, the city could no longer offer daily hot lunches there. As a work-around, the Area Agency on Aging with Stanislaus County provides the food, and the city provides the location and volunteers to distribute.
