Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Beloit, KS, plays a vital role in delivering essential food assistance to low-income households across the state. Administered by the Kansas Department for Children and Families, TEFAP ensures that families have access to nutritious USDA commodity foods, such as canned vegetables, fruit, juice, meat, cereal, peanut butter, nonfat dry milk, and pasta. With shipments occurring five to six times a year to local organizations for distribution, each eligible household receives a minimum of four to a maximum of ten food items to help meet their basic nutritional needs. To access this invaluable resource, clients must apply in their home county, reaffirming our commitment to serving those in need within our community.
