The Home Delivered Meals program is available for eligible older adults age 60 and older.

If you are an existing Home Delivered Meals Program client, you can:

  • Report a missed delivery
  • Cancel or resume service
  • Make complaints about the quality of food or service

A local Case Management Agency can enroll an older adult age 60 and older in a meal delivery program. If the older adult is unable to attend a group meal program or prepare their own meals, nutritionally balanced meals will be delivered to their home.

In order to receive home delivered meals, an older adult must be evaluated by a case manager at a participating agency.

Older adults who receive home care eight or more hours a day are generally not eligible for home delivered meals, as the attendant is expected to prepare meals for the older adult.  Exceptions are made when an older adult has no cooking facilities, cannot afford to purchase food, or requires a kosher meal that the attendant cannot prepare.
