Emergency Food Assistance Program

The Emergency Food Assistance Program in Clinton, MD, serves as a vital resource for those in need, connecting individuals and families with emergency food support through a network of over 30 local community pantries and shelters. Our mission is to ensure that everyone has access to food assistance, providing all services completely free of charge. Each month, we offer an updated list of nearby pantries and soup kitchens, guiding clients on how to secure their groceries. While recipients are responsible for reaching out to schedule appointments and pick up their food, we encourage those in need to inquire about transportation options if required. To access our services, it’s important to bring necessary documentation, such as photo identification and eligibility proof, including items like an Independence card or recent paystubs, ensuring a smooth and efficient process for all. Together, we strive to alleviate hunger and provide essential support within our community.
