Food Programs

Serving the most essential physiological needs of our community members

Proper nutrition is an important aspect of everyone’s life. Food plays a central role in our overall health and well-being and our ability to function. A well-balanced diet provides the essential vitamins and nutrients we need to thrive in our daily lives.

Families and individuals who are food insecure face significant challenges in the area of health and nutrition. Due to limited or no money, access to healthy foods can be a barrier to health. This often leads to a poor intake of vitamins and minerals and puts people at risk of malnutrition, which can often be overlooked when providing care.

Our food pantry also serves as a resource for families in the community to reduce their vulnerability to food insecurity and homelessness.

Dining Services

Families in Transition dining services supports individuals and families at our emergency shelters and men’s and women’s recovery housing programs. Our culinary staff prepares healthy meals each day in our fully licensed kitchen and ensures that people’s health and well-being are of the utmost importance.

We have many volunteer opportunities to help our food services and serve teams.
