There’s been some big changes over the past few months at Austin’s Meals on Wheels agency. First, the group changed its name from Meals on Wheels and More, which it had used since 1994, to Meals on Wheels Central Texas to more accurately represent the seven-county area the group now serves. Then, the group added another to the long list of services it provides by acquiring the in-home health care nonprofit Helping the Aging, Needy and Disabled, better known as HAND. The group provides personal care attendants to low-income older adults and people with disabilities.
