How does someone qualify to receive meals on wheels?

The Deupree Meals On Wheels program serves both older adults and homebound individuals in eastern Cincinnati who wish to receive home-delivered meals. All meals are funded through private pay or funding established by the Council on Aging in Southwestern Ohio. Meals On Wheels is a cost-effective way to ensure that homebound people get the nutrition and social contact they need to live independently.

To qualify for Council on Aging funding, clients must meet a set of criteria (subsidized funding may be available), including being at least 60 years of age.
