Getting the right food, at the right time, in the hands of people in need takes a personal touch, trust and local knowledge. We partner with roughly 250 organizations to do just that.
We work in partnership with the Texas Health and Human Services (HHSC) department to provide free phone and in-person consultations in English and Spanish, pre-screening, application submissions, and additional help when applying for food stamps (SNAP) and other social services.
Let us help your clients apply for food stamps (SNAP), Children's Medicaid, CHIP, CHIP Perinatal Program, TANF and the Women's Health Program.
