Family Health and Nutrition is dedicated to serving the residents of Bakersfield, CA, by providing vital food assistance and health resources tailored to support individuals and families in need. Our Community Resource Center operates a welcoming food pantry, ensuring that families with children, seniors, and disabled individuals can access emergency food assistance once a month. Beyond our pantry, we connect community members with essential programs such as CalFresh/Food Stamps, Senior Sack, and local church food initiatives, helping to alleviate hunger and promote well-being. Our advocates are available to assist with CalFresh applications, enrollment in Medi-Cal and Covered California, and provide invaluable Medicare advice through monthly consultations.
