Application Process:

Call the office to complete an intake. Following the initial intake process, a caseworker will make a home visit to complete an assessment, explain the program, and determine eligibility. Every three months, individuals receiving home-delivered meals are reassessed for continued eligibility either by phone or a home visit. MOW currently has a waitlist and all applicants will be screened to determine risk level and priority. Anticipated wait time may be a few weeks, up to several months.
