Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Ulysses, Kansas, is dedicated to providing vital food assistance to low-income households across the state. By distributing free USDA commodity foods, we ensure that families have access to essential nutrition, including canned vegetables, fruits, meats, cereals, and more. Our program operates by delivering food shipments five to six times a year to local organizations, allowing us to distribute a minimum of four and up to ten food items to each household in need. To participate, families can apply in their home county, receiving the support they need to nourish their households.
