Before you go

  • Confirm the location, hours, eligibility, and food availability before traveling.
  • Bring identification or documents only if the provider asks for them.
  • For an urgent health or safety emergency, call 911.

Providers control their own eligibility, schedules, and supply. These links do not guarantee service or availability.

Delivery Pilot

We are also preparing a separate pilot concept focused on transportation barriers to food pickup. It is not an active delivery service.
