Community Programs

HUNGER CENTER

Our Hunger Center program is comprised of a choice model food pantry, a community meal, and a monthly Mobile Pantry. Through the food pantry, neighbors can visit as needed to select 3-5 days’ worth of groceries such as pantry staples, fresh bread, fresh produce, and various perishable and non-perishable items. Every Tuesday evening, community residents can join us for a free, hot community meal. In addition, on the first Monday of the month*, we host our Mobile Pantry; neighbors can come by and stock up on fresh fruits and vegetables.

*If the first Monday of the month falls on a holiday, the Mobile Pantry distribution will be rescheduled for the following Monday.

The purpose of the Access Centers is to support individuals and families on their path to success by providing affordable or no-cost community-based educational and workforce programming.
