EMERGENCY RESOURCES


For immediate and confidential assistance, you may call the Broward


County 2-1-1 hotline, by simply dialing 2-1-1. Assistance is available 24


hours a day, seven days a week, and you will be directed to the nearest


emergency food or social service agency in your area.


The Food Stamp Program (SNAP) helps people with low-income, buy


healthy food. A food stamp household is normally a group of people who live


together and buy food and cook meals together. If your household passes


the Food Stamp Program's eligibility rules, the amount of food stamp


benefits you get depends on the number of people in your household and


how much money is left after certain expenses are subtracted. To view


eligibility requirements, click here. To view a listing of Food Stamp


(SNAP) Access Centers in your community, click here.


Broward Meals On Wheels provides Emergency Food Services to Seniors.


This one time service provides seniors returning home from the hospital


with 14 dinners and 14 breakfasts to help them through their recovery period.


Additionally, homebound adults in Broward County can request a grocery


shopping volunteer who will shop for them once every other week at their


local Publix Supermarket. There is no charge for the service, but customers


must pay for their own groceries by setting up an account with BMOW.


Donations for all services are requested. Visit www.BMOW.org
