Emergency and Food Assistance

Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens operates an extensive emergency food assistance program designed to support individuals and families experiencing food insecurity. Our comprehensive network includes strategically located food distribution centers and accessible food pantries throughout the boroughs. These facilities work in coordination to provide essential nutritional support, offering both immediate emergency food relief and ongoing assistance to community members in need. Through our distribution centers, we organize regular food distributions events that ensure fresh, nutritious food reaches those who need it most, while our food pantries serve as reliable, consistent resources for individuals and families seeking sustained food support.
