Food Basket Program
Seniors’ Food Basket Program
As part of our social outreach services, Strathcona Place Outreach Team (SPOT) has introduced the Food Basket Program to help promote food security among older adults. We understand that maintaining a reliable supply of food can be difficult due to factors such as fixed incomes, mobility challenges, or changes in health. This program is designed to provide support in accessing nutritious and culturally relevant food options.
To register, we will complete a brief intake form with each client to learn about their cultural, medical, and dietary needs and preferences. The food baskets are typically ready for same-day pickup at Strathcona Place Seniors Centre. If certain food items are temporarily unavailable, we will schedule a convenient pickup time in the near future.
While we do not offer delivery, we welcome any family member, friend, or support worker to pick up on behalf of the client if they are not able to do so themselves.
The Food Basket Program is intended to meet immediate food needs while also connecting clients with longer-term community food resources. We work in collaboration with Edmonton’s Food Bank and other local partners to ensure comprehensive support for our clients.
