FOOD ASSISTANCE IS STILL AVAILABLE AND MAY BE CLOSER THAN YOU THINK

If you are in need of food assistance, you can find resources by visiting the interactive Palm Beach County Feeding Sites map. Instructions for using the application are provided, and users can search for locations providing assistance simply by entering their address. The results of the search will return a list of locations, and the user can click on the location to find out the address, distribution days, hours and more for that location. Additional filters are also available on the site to help narrow (or expand) distance, or filter by service, meal hours or days.
