Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP)

Community Supplemental Food Program (C.S.F.P)

The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) provides nutritious supplemental food to seniors 60 years of age and older.

CSFP does not provide all the food a person needs. It provides supplemental food with good sources of nutrients which may be lacking in the diets of the participants.

All commodity foods are supplied by the USDA. They do not need to be refrigerated until they have been opened, except for the cheese, which must be refrigerated. Help is available for learning how to prepare some of the foods.

To see if you meet the federal and state guidelines for the program bring:

  • Proof of income (i.e. bank statement or social security letter)
  • Birth certificates (If birth certificate is unavailable, some document verifying age must be provided)
  • Proof of residence — either a letter post marked within the last 30 days, or a utility bill with date and address on it.
  • Proof of lawful immigration status (i.e. permanent resident card)
