USDA food distribution resources
USDA offers several food distribution resources to combat food insecurity, including the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (which ships USDA Foods to eligible households), the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (which provides USDA Foods to low-income persons aged 60 years or older to supplement their diet), and the Emergency Food Assistance Program (which provides no-cost emergency food assistance to low-income households). The Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations and Commodity Supplemental Food programs are administered by either an Indian Tribal Organization or state government agency, and they provide USDA Foods and funding for administration. The Emergency Food Assistance Program is administrated by states, providing food directly to households and local nonprofit organizations.
