Overview

About Erath County Senior Citizens Inc

For home-bound older adults in Erath County, a meal can arrive at the door five days a week, and a ride can mean getting to a medical appointment or simply getting out for the day. Erath County Senior Citizens Inc also steps in with emergency assistance for people facing hunger or homelessness, which makes it a practical place to give if you care about the basics that keep daily life moving. This is support with a clear target, older adults and vulnerable neighbors in Erath County, and it shows up in ways people can feel right away.

What stands out here is how specific the help is. Meals, transportation, emergency assistance, and even pet food delivery through the Pet Program are all centered on the real needs of Erath County residents, especially older adults.
