Food-ON
Children Strong
Food-ON aims to improve community relations and address food insecurity by connecting food banks with law enforcement to distribute healthy food kits during domestic 911 calls.
HELP Initiative has collaborated with the Food Bank of Delaware, the Delaware State Police, and other law enforcement agencies in the state to establish a Food-ON Program. HELP has an agreement with the Food Bank to provide nonperishable food kits which HELP places in “Go-Bags.” Police departments have indicated that invariably when responding to domestic disputes, officers encounter children in homes who have not eaten and are hungry. The GO-Bags will be distributed to police statewide. When the police officers respond to domestic disputes, they will distribute the food to children as needed.
