Senior services and programs
Many of the senior services at Wesley House are made possible through a grant from the St. Louis Area Agency On Aging – SLAAA. The primary goal of the program is to help seniors retain their independence. The program has three areas of focus; Congregate Meals, Home Delivered Meals and Transportation Services.

Direct Services and community dialouges
The Community Forum is the name under which Wesley House provides community services and initiatives. There are three main components to the forum and through them we are able to deliver an array of services and activities that touch a large cross-section of people in our community.
