Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Overland Park, KS, is dedicated to alleviating hunger by providing free USDA commodity foods to low-income households across the state of Kansas. We facilitate the delivery of essential food items, including canned vegetables, fruits, juices, meats, cereals, peanut butter, nonfat dry milk, and pasta, ensuring that families receive nutritious sustenance to meet their basic needs. Our program distributes food five to six times a year through local organizations, with each shipment supplying between four and ten different food items per household. To access this vital food assistance, we encourage clients to apply within their home county, reinforcing our commitment to support those in need within their communities.
