Our meals program is for people living with critical or chronic illnesses and food insecurity. Eligibility is based on medical or behavioral health diagnosis and ability to maintain a healthy diet and independent lifestyle. Referrals are accepted from case managers, dietitians, primary care providers, social workers, and other healthcare providers; prospective clients can self-refer with a medical certification form completed by a provider.
Someone must be home to meet the driver and sign. Call Client Services at 617-522-7777 if meals haven’t arrived by 8 p.m. on the scheduled date. Cancel 24 hours ahead. Only one delivery attempt per week; if no one signs, no reschedule/redelivery. Repeated missed deliveries without notice may end services.
Our dietitians offer printable resources and nutrition tips to help clients and community members make healthy food choices.

Since its founding in 1990, it has provided more than 15 million medically tailored meals to clients across Massachusetts living with severe critical and chronic illnesses such as HIV, cancer, diabetes, and kidney disease.
