Food Assistance

Senior Commodities

Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) is a federal program that works to improve the health of low-income seniors by supplementing diets with nutritious USDA food. For many seniors in our community, improper diet may lead to major health concerns. Malnutrition contributes to a weakened immune system, loss of bone mass and muscle weakness (which contributes to falls and fractures), and a slower response to wound healing.

Stop by Today for Your Application & Food Box!

Each supplemental food box contains milk, cheese, juice, canned fruit and vegetables, canned meat and plant-based proteins, starches, cereals, etc... You may pick up a box once each month, in addition to using our Client Choice food room. There is no charge to participate.

    I don’t have to be afraid any more. When I was homeless, I spent all my energy hiding, so I wouldn’t get hurt by others. Now that I am in my own apartment, I can be clean all the time and I am safe. Thank you!
