What to expect when visiting the pantry
A client visiting for the first time will be asked where they live. If they reside within our service boundaries, eligibility for TEFAP (The Emergency Food Assistance Program) or USDA food is based on the household being in need of emergency food, meeting the income guidelines below or participates in SNAP, WIC, FDPIR, CSFP OR a child receives free/reduced meals at school. Updated May 2022.
Self-declared eligible clients will be asked to provide basic information including names of family members, address, and phone number. Each household is offered 12 monthly visits with a reassessment after one year. Service is curbside. Please call the pantry at 586 336-6737 upon arrival or for more information.
