FROM CEO KAREN NOEL
Giving Heals Many
We've worked hard in recent months to identify the needs in our community — among them, food is a constant struggle. Now, we're dedicating our time to helping solve hunger in more ways than one.

WELCOME CENTER
The Many Barriers to Food
We often think of hunger as a distant worry, when in actuality, it already affects thousands of households within our community. Our Welcome Center resource specialist Katie has all the details.
CHILDREN & FAMILY SERVICES
The Importance of Nutrition & Healthy Eating
Food does more than just fill empty bellies — it provides a sound foundation upon which other good things can flourish, including mental health.

EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
Client First, Employment Second
What exactly is food insecurity, and how does it relate to employment? Our Employment Services specialist takes you through the process of feeding our neighbors in need and lifting them to the dignity of self-reliance.
HOUSING SERVICES
The Many Options for Veterans
Veterans can encounter a variety of obstacles while navigating civilian life, especially when burdened with a disability. Our Veteran Services team ensures no veteran goes without help.
