Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Leavenworth, KS, is committed to combating food insecurity by providing free USDA commodity foods to low-income households across the region. With shipments delivered five to six times a year, TEFAP ensures that families receive vital nutritional support, offering a diverse selection of food items such as canned vegetables, fruits, juices, meats, cereals, peanut butter, nonfat dry milk, and pasta. Each household can access a minimum of four and up to ten various food items per distribution, directly catering to their nutritional needs. To benefit from this essential food assistance, individuals must apply through their home county, reinforcing our mission to foster a connected and supportive community in Kansas.
