The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), located in Monument, CO, is dedicated to providing essential emergency food supplies to seniors in need, helping them maximize their food budgets. Our thoughtful selection includes a variety of nutritious items such as nonfat dry milk, rice, peanut butter, pasta, and canned goods, available on a first-come, first-served basis until supplies last. We are committed to meeting the nutritional needs of our senior community, and in partnership with Care & Share, we also assist eligible individuals aged 60 and above with their applications for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), previously known as food stamps, streamlining access to vital benefits. Alongside food assistance, we offer guidance to help seniors navigate government benefits and support services. For those interested, appointments can be scheduled to ensure a personalized experience.
