Ypsilanti Meals On Wheels

Mission: Ypsilanti Meals on Wheels provides nutritious meals, social contact and other services to the homebound elderly, ill and disabled in eastern Washtenaw County, to enable them to enjoy healthier, safer, and more independent lives. Vision: A community where every senior feels nourished, valued and supported. Our Values Compassion: We exercise compassion by taking time to listen and chat with a client. Community: We encourage community by working with other local agencies to provide for our homebound neighbors, and by including our clients’ voices in decisions regarding their care. Reliability: We demonstrate reliability when meals are delivered on time, at a safe temperature, and with a friendly smile. Adaptability: We show our adaptability by offering food and support services that meet the individual needs of our clients. Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion: Ypsilanti Meals on Wheels stands in solidarity with those hurt, frustrated, angry, discouraged and disenfranchised by institutional and societal racism. We support our black and brown neighbors, our racially diverse staff and clients, residents of the greater Ypsilanti area, and communities all across the country, as the long-fought fight for racial, ethnic and religious equality continues. We commit to continued inclusion in all forms and remain dedicated to our mission to provide food and well-being support to homebound, at-risk, isolated, and vulnerable neighbors, regardless of race, income, gender, sexual orientation or religion.
