Elderly Services

	Helping Bristol Bay elders remain in their home villages leading independent lives is the work of BBNA's Elderly Services Program. Meals, Home Care, Chore Services and Information & Referral are a few of the services we provide. If you would like more information on the following programs, please contact Pete Andrew at 1-800-478-4139 or (907) 842-4139.

Meal Service
BBNA provides congregate and home delivered meals to individuals 60 or older, or who are disabled. The meals are free thanks to grants from the Alaska Commission on Aging and the US Administration on Aging. Since the meals are prepared and served in village schools*, we are only able to provide meals during the school year. * Newhalen's meal service in is provided at the Newhalen Head Start.

We currently provide meal service in the following villages:

Clarks Point	Chignik Bay	Chignik Lake	Ekwok	Igiugig
Koliganek	Levelock	Manokotak	Naknek/King Salmon	Newhalen/Iliamna
Nondalton	Pedro Bay	Perryville	Port Heiden	South Naknek
New Stuyahok	Kokhanok	Togiak

	Information & Referral
	Elderly Services provides information and referral services to all elders living in the Bristol Bay area.  We currently provide translation services, assistance with paperwork such as Social Security, Adult Public Assistance, Medicaid, SSI and Energy Assistance.
	Chore Service
	Chore services are available to any elder or disabled individual in our service area that needs assistance with housekeeping, cooking, wood cutting and water hauling. This service is intended for those elders who live alone or do not have family available to help them.
