This is a renewal. The Probation Department has been providing this service since about 2017. Tehama County’s Meals on Wheels (MOW) program provides meals to seniors through its congregate and home-delivered meal services. The Probation Department will continue to prepare, cook and package the meals at the Juvenile Detention Facility for MOW delivery to the congregate sites in Red Bluff, Los Molinos, and Corning and for delivery to homebound seniors. The Probation Department will manage food supply and maintain their facility to meet nutritional and regulatory guidelines, and MOW staff will deliver the food and maintain correspondence with the public, seniors in the program, and congregate sites.
