Our History
Founded in 1941, DOCS has been providing senior citizens services in Northeast Oklahoma, providing them a sense of dignity and compassion. We began in 1980 as the Ottawa County Homemaker Program providing services to residents of Ottawa County and have expanded over the years to provide meals and core services to residents of Craig and Delaware Counties also.
Our programs have grown to include seniors in all three counties. We continue to grow and are excited for the ability to serve seniors with ability and respect.
We operate both the Miami and Grove Senior Center Kitchens providing more than meals daily to homebound clients along with our congregate setting clients located in
- The 9-Tribes Tower dining room in Miami
- Grove Senior Center
- Afton Senior Center
- Burroughs Manor in Vinita
We also now provide Meals on Wheels service to residents of Delaware, Ottawa, and Craig Counties, along with our ADvantage Frozen Meal Program.
