More Than a Meal: Strafford Nutrition and Meals on Wheels by Dover Download
In this episode of the Dover Download podcast, Deputy City Manager Christopher Parker chats with Katy Cordova-Brooks, executive director of the Strafford Nutrition and Meals on Wheels program, continuing the series spotlighting nonprofits that strengthen Dover. The program delivers hot lunchtime meals to seniors and adults with disabilities across Strafford County, helping people remain independent at home and easing the burden on families who can't be present during the workday. Deliveries run Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, with an extra meal sent on Tuesday to cover Wednesday, and drivers double as wellness checks, reporting any concerning changes. Headquartered in Somersworth with sites in Dover and Rochester, the organization runs 17 routes serving urban and rural communities alike. State contracts cover only 60 to 70 percent of costs, so the group fundraises and never charges clients, though donations are welcome. Cordova-Brooks, who relocated from Las Vegas about a year and a half ago, described menus that vary for variety while following loose patterns, low-sodium meals with some modifications, and nutritional education built into state contracts. Drivers are paid employees because they use their own vehicles, while volunteers assist at sites and with congregate dining, which emphasizes social connection and combating loneliness for those 60 and older. Client retention is high. She urged listeners to set aside the misconception that meals should be reserved for someone in greater need, stressing that both nourishment and human connection matter.
