90 Day

Emergency Food Program

Our 90 day emergency food program helps to provide temporary assistance to families and individuals in crisis by supplying canned goods, fresh produce, baked goods, clothing, household items and baby items on a bi-weekly basis while transitioning to self-sufficiency.

We treat each individual with dignity and respect as our trained, caring volunteers help to determine client need and explore best practices and innovative ways to create solutions to return to self-sufficiency. 

At the initial visit, clients are asked a short series of basic "intake" questions and to provide required documents for case management purposes.  During our "90 day Emergency Food Program" the client is provided assistance with the Food Stamp process, given referrals  to other community services and encouraged with one one one interaction. 

 Not Just a Food Pantry
