Meals On Wheels, Inc. of Tarrant County provides more than meals. Our Case Management Department is the client’s link to assessing and receiving other services and pertinent needs.

Home-Delivered Meals
Meals On Wheels, Inc. of Tarrant County provides nutritionally balanced, home-delivered breakfast and noon meals to homebound elderly and disabled citizens of Tarrant County.

Client Eligibility
To be eligible for our programs and services, a person must be homebound, be unable to prepare a nutritious meal, and not have anyone able to prepare a nutritious meal on a regular basis. Eligibility is based on need; there is no age or income criteria. Clients are encouraged to contribute toward the cost of their meal, but no one is ever turned away because they are unable to pay.
