Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Ulysses, Kansas, is dedicated to providing critical food assistance to low-income households across the region. Operating through the Kansas Department for Children and Families, TEFAP ensures that families have access to essential USDA commodity foods, including canned vegetables, fruit, meat, cereal, and more. With deliveries scheduled five to six times a year for participating organizations, we focus on meeting the basic nutritional needs of our communities.

To access our emergency food services, clients can apply in their home county, helping to create a more food-secure environment for all.
