Lamar County Human Resources Council, Inc. and Meals on Wheels will be extending the temporary closure of our four Senior Centers; Pshigoda and Washington Centers in Lamar County, Clarksville Center in Red River County, and Cooper Center in Delta County.
“While we had anticipated reopening July 1, 2020, we believe it is in the best interest of our clients that we remain closed through the month of July. At the present time, we have set a new reopen date of August 1, 2020. Should this date change again, we will release that information to the public,” said Executive Director Shelly Braziel.
While those centers have been and will remain closed, meals are still being provided to those congregate clients, through a pickup or home-delivered option. Congregate clients who have no set up their meal receipt option can contact their case manager at (903) 784-2580.
Center Meal Distribution days & times are as follows:
Pshigoda Center – Fridays from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
Washington Center – Fridays from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Clarksville Center – Mondays from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Cooper Center – Every Other Tuesday from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
“At this time, we are still accepting new clients for both Congregate and Home Delivered Meals. If you are 60 years of age or older, disabled, or a veteran, please contact our office for a no-contact eligibility process. Please know the changes we are making at L.C.H.R.C. are done to protect the health and safety of our clients,” Braziel said.
“We would like to thank the community for your support as we continue to provide the best possible services for seniors, disabled individuals, and veterans in northeast Texas.”
