Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Hillsboro, Kansas, is dedicated to supporting low-income households by providing crucial food assistance through the distribution of free USDA commodity foods. With shipments occurring five to six times a year to collaborating organizations, TEFAP ensures that families receive essential nutrition, including canned vegetables, fruit, juice, meat, cereal, peanut butter, nonfat dry milk, and pasta. By delivering a minimum of four and up to ten food items per household, we strive to meet the immediate dietary needs of our community members. Individuals interested in accessing these resources must apply within their home county, empowering them to regain stability and nourishment during challenging times.
