Alexandria, VA 22314
Phone: 703-305-2062
TEFAP offers monthly food support to eligible residents. Proof of income and residency is required!
The Program:
USDA buys the food, including processing and packaging, and ships it to the States. The amount received
by each State depends on its low-income & unemployed population. State agencies work out details of administration and distribution.
They select local organizations that either directly distribute to households or serve meals, or distribute
to other local organizations that perform these functions. Each State sets criteria for determining what households are eligible to receive food for home consumption. Income standards may, at the State’s dis-
cretion, be met through participation in other existing Federal, State, or local food, health, or welfare programs for which eligibility is based on income. Call 734-721-4470 to find the nearest center to you!
