Meals on Wheels

Delivering so much more than a meal

There are many circumstances that can make shopping or preparing food difficult for older adults. That’s where Meals on Wheels steps in, offering relief to older adults and caregivers by delivering reliable, nutritious meals on a weekly basis. Our friendly drivers bring satisfying, well-balanced meals directly to the homes of older adults.

How to Apply

Applicants can choose to submit an application online or complete a print-out version and mail it in to our main downtown office. Please submit one application per person. Due to limited funding and a substantial demand for our program, we currently maintain an open-ended waiting list for program access. If you wish to explore our private payment alternative, which entails a cost of $8.50 per meal and requires a minimum order of seven meals, please indicate your preference on your application. Furthermore, we are accepting applications from individuals whose meals are covered by COPES, New Freedom, and PACE – Providence.
