The restaurant voucher program is designed to allow more flexibility in dining location, hours, and menu choices.

According to Older American Act guidelines, the following individuals are eligible to participate in our program

on a voluntary contribution basis:

  • Anyone age 60 or older.
  • Any spouse or domestic partner of an eligible older individual participating in the program. Both individuals must attend dining site together.
  • A disabled adult, under age 60, who resides at home with an eligible older individual participating in the program. Both individuals must attend dining site together.

Please review the following information:

  • Expiration Policy – Vouchers expire at the end of each calendar year. Program vendors will not accept expired vouchers. Also, Waupaca County DHHS is not able to “refund” expired vouchers. Please do your best to use them before they expire.
  • Gratuity Policy – The program voucher includes tip. Please do not feel obligated to leave a tip.
  • Program Approved Menu – You must order a meal from the program-approved menu. If you order something that is not on the program-approved menu, this will be at the individual’s cost.
  • Voucher Usage – You can request up to 12 vouchers per person, per calendar month. Voucher request approval will be dependent on program funding and voucher availability.
  • Suggested Contribution – The suggested contribution is $5.00 per meal. You will not be denied a meal if you are unable to contribute. Contributions are accepted: via mail (cash or check), credit or debit via our website, in person at our office, or over the phone. Please note: The restaurant is unable to accept contributions.
  • Voucher Guidelines – Vouchers are for YOUR use only. You may not “borrow” or “lend” your voucher to/from another person, even if they are enrolled in our program. Program guidelines restrict the vouchers to eligible participants only.
  • When using our programPlease present your voucher when you are seated at your table. Your signature on the voucher is required. In order to ensure an enrolled participant is using the voucher, the restaurant may require proof of identification. Please provide identification as needed.
    • Each participant who is ordering from the program menu must have his or her own program voucher; the restaurant is unable to divide meal portions.
  • Our Intent – Our intent of the program is to provide healthful dining, along with the opportunity for socialization. “Take- Out” meals are not available. Of course, you may take your leftovers home.
