The Food Distribution Program in Joplin, MO, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance to low-income households, particularly those with members of federally recognized tribes. Our mission is to ensure families have access to nutritious foods, fostering health and well-being within our communities. We serve residents in a broad area that covers portions of Ottawa and Delaware County in Oklahoma, as well as Cherokee and Labette Counties in Kansas, and Newton, Barton, Jasper, and McDonald Counties in Missouri. By focusing on the urgent need for emergency food resources, we aim to uplift those we serve and contribute to their food security.
