Family Values For Life-Weekly Community Food Distribution

Individuals and families often turn to Family Values For Life in crisis and stay to build stability. Sudden issues like job or transportation loss or medical crises cause food and/or housing insecurity, which all weaken the stability of a household.

In addition to providing the community support during crisis and resource assistance, Family Values For Life offers basic needs (food and essential items) support. These services are designed to relieve immediate stress for low-income neighbors while also helping them build a more stable foundation for their future.
