The Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) in Brainerd, MN, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance to low-income members of the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe. We offer nutritious food packages, including fresh fruits and vegetables, as a vital alternative to traditional food stamps. Our service is designed to support households located in or near the Mille Lacs Reservation, with the exception of those in cities with populations exceeding 10,000. To access our program, interested applicants can print the necessary application from our website, ensuring to include required documents and signatures from all household members aged 18 and older. We strive to process applications efficiently, taking up to five business days for eligibility confirmation, followed by an additional two business days to complete your food order. Together, we are committed to addressing food insecurity and enhancing the well-being of our community members.
