Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR)

The Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) serves the critical need for food assistance among low-income households, particularly the elderly and Native American families living on and near Indian reservations in Chesterton, IN. As a vital federal initiative, FDPIR provides nutritious USDA foods and offers nutrition education to ensure families have access to healthy options. To qualify for this essential support, applicants must meet specific monthly income guidelines. We encourage individuals seeking emergency food assistance to reach out to their Indian Tribal Organization or the State Distributing Agency for guidance on how to apply and access these invaluable resources.
