"A free grocery delivery program for seniors and people with disabilities was launched in Los Angeles County to help residents who are more vulnerable to the novel coronavirus.  

The countywide program, called  <https://wdacs.lacounty.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/CSD_Fact-Sheet_V.2_Final.pdf> Critical Delivery Service, will deliver groceries, household items and other vital necessities to those unable to leave their homes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Here’s what to know.

*         Items may be delivered 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

*         There is no delivery cost to the client.

*         No application process is required, but items must be pre-paid and ready for pickup.

*         Deliveries may be scheduled by calling 1-888-863-7411 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays.
