Effective today, March 31, 2020, the Terrebonne Council on Aging will limit their transportation services to dialysis patients only. This is being implemented to reduce the risk of exposure to their drivers and other clients to COVID-19. This will remain in effective until further notice.
Economically needy and disadvantage senior residents of Terrebonne Parish (60 and over), who are not currently receiving home-delivered meals, may call the Terrebonne Council on Aging to find out if they qualify to receive a meal. Please call the Council on Aging at (985) 868-8411 then dial 0 for assistance.
