The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) in Salina, Kansas, is dedicated to alleviating food insecurity by providing free USDA commodity foods to low-income households across the state. With shipments occurring five to six times a year, TEFAP partners with local organizations to ensure that families receive essential emergency food supplies, which may include canned vegetables, fruit, juice, meat, cereal, peanut butter, nonfat dry milk, and pasta. Each household benefits from a minimum of four and up to ten food items per shipment, ensuring that basic nutritional needs are met. To access this vital food assistance, individuals must apply in their home counties, allowing us to reach those who need support most effectively.
