Your Right to Receive Food
When you receive food from a Food Bank partner, you have the right to:
- Receive food at no cost
- Never be required to attend religious services or pay fees
- Never be refused food based on who you are or what you believe
- Be treated with respect and dignity at all times
- Not be required to show ID, proof of income, or citizenship
If you feel your rights have been violated, please contact us at 512-282-2111.
What to Expect When Visiting a Food Pantry, Food Distribution or Mobile Food Pantry
When you arrive at a pantry or distribution site, you may be asked to fill out a short form confirming you live in the area and need food assistance. Bring a food cart or reusable bags to carry items home — assistance may be limited. Before heading out, check for weather or holiday closures by calling 512-684-2559.
