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.

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

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.

Call 817-336-0912 or click the link above to make an inquiry or referral. The referral may come from a prospective client, family member, or an advocate. Once the referral is made, a case manager will set up a time for the initial home visit and eligibility assessment.

Each client and prospective client is assigned a professional case manager who assesses the client's needs, coordinates services, and advocates for the client with other agencies.

We also help our clients when they need additional assistance to remain independent and in their own home in a safe and healthy environment. This program is considered a “last resort” resource when the client desperately needs something and has no other resources available.

Neighbor Helping Neighbor seeks to eliminate social isolation in older adults and build a strong and safe community. This program assists senior citizens age 60 and older.

These programs are designed to help clients with specific nutrition needs. They are partially funded by United Way and carried out by our dietitians.
