A measure to protect funding for the Meals on Wheels program was up for a public hearing this week at the state capitol.  The non-profit, volunteer-based service delivers nutritious meals to people who are elderly or disabled, or homebound.  Senator Tony Hwang, whose district includes Newtown, says the bill includes an increase in the fee schedule for Meals on Wheels.  He says it reflects reasonable costs of providers, and minimize any copayments incurred by participants in the program.
