Food Pantry
El Buen’s food pantry provides emergency food assistance to families and individuals in economic hardship for a period of six months. These qualifying individuals receive healthy food along with nutritional guidance and education via healthy recipes and educational materials.
Through the food pantry intake process, a case worker guides food pantry recipients to a comprehensive menu of services designed to help them improve their physical and emotional health and employment opportunities.
Distribution hours are Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 am to noon.
