Food Stamp Outreach
The Foodbank launched a Food Stamp Outreach and Research Project in 2001. Through a grant from the USDA, the Foodbank we developed a food stamp outreach project that allowed our Outreach Workers to conduct outreach at 70 different agencies throughout the county. The Outreach Team was equipped with laptops and software that allowed them to evaluate each client’s eligibility.
Recently, the Foodbank has been instrumental in changing and forming food stamp policy for Los Angeles County and the State of California. The Foodbank continues to work with LA County and agencies on food stamp outreach activities.
