| Abstract: | We present a spatial decision support system for the non-profit sector, designed to assist planning in the area of home-delivered
services such as meals on wheels. Using data collected from existing programs, current and forecasted demographic data, and
a set of algorithmic tools, we provide a system for evaluating current meals on wheels facilities, and for making incremental
facility location decisions that satisfy coverage and equity requirements.
