Federal Nutrition Programs and Emergency Food Referral Chart for Grandfamilies and Kinship Families
Created by our subject matter experts at the Food Research & Action Center , this resource is an update of a document that they previously prepared for our parent organization, Generations United.
This chart provides a look at the range of federal nutrition programs available to grandfamilies and kinship families with low incomes. Most of these programs are available to anyone who is eligible without waitlists or participation caps. Additionally, the programs in this chart are especially important resources for grandfamilies and kinship families, since a caregiver does not need to have legal custody or guardianship, or be related to the child living with them, to receive help.
