Each weekday, hot meals are delivered to frail homebound older adults who are unable to prepare their own meals and/or lack the support system for meal preparation.

The program offers diabetic alternative meals. While there is no income eligibility requirement for “Meals on Wheels”, Senior Services maintains a waiting list for this essential program prioritized by client impairment/lack of support systems.
