🍞Local Food Assistance & Donation Locations🍼

Due to the ongoing federal government shutdown and direction from the administration, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has been restricted in the amount of funds it can currently issue for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), known as CalFresh in California.

This means that November SNAP/CalFresh benefits are currently restricted, reduced amounts will be loaded onto EBT cards, and the date of that loading, normally the 1st of the month, is uncertain.

For those who need help, and for those in our community who wish to provide help (donations are great), here are major food assistance resources in our areas.
