- MEALS-ON-WHEELSGood nutrition and social interaction are vital for healthy living. Senior citizens in Clinton, Eaton and Ingham Counties have access to both through the Meals-On-Wheels program. The nutrition program provides hot, balanced meals to homebound senior citizens who can't prepare their own food. For many, the home delivered meal is the only hot food they have each day. Meals-On-Wheels are available on a temporary or ongoing basis. Seniors also benefit from the personal contact with the volunteers who deliver them. Because many clients live alone or with ailing spouses, having someone check on them each day gives them a sense of well being and helps them feel safe. Another major benefit of the Meals-On-Wheels is independence. There are many senior citizens in our communities who have basic needs, that, if met, allow them to stay in their homes and lead independent lives.
