Effective Sunday, Oct. 1, 2023, the three area IHOP restaurants that have been participating in Aging and Human Services' CHAMPSS program will no longer be available.

While unfortunate that the IHOP restaurants will no longer be part of the CHAMPSS program, AHS staff is dedicated to ensuring that we have a program to meet the needs of our residents.

With the short amount of notice before the end of the IHOP participation, staff will be meeting early next week to strategize next steps. Although IHOP will no longer be an option, our eight area Hy-Vee stores continue to participate in the CHAMPSS program.

More information will be coming in the near future about any plans to continue expanding the CHAMPSS program.  Please contact Stephanie French at 913-715-8894 with any CHAMPSS questions.
