Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Wellsville, Kansas, offers vital food assistance to low-income households across the state. Administered by the Kansas Department for Children and Families, TEFAP ensures that families receive essential USDA commodity foods, including nourishing canned goods, fruits, juices, meats, cereals, and more. With shipments occurring five to six times each year to participating organizations, we strive to meet the basic nutritional needs of our community members. Each eligible household can look forward to receiving a minimum of four and up to ten food items per shipment, ensuring that no one goes hungry. To access these essential food resources, clients must apply through their home county.
