The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) is funded entirely by the United State Department of Agriculture. Monies are used for commodity purchases and administrative costs associated with the program. Commodities are stored at the Mississippi Food Network in Jackson and the Twelve Baskets Food Bank in Biloxi. The commodities are distributed through food pantries, soup kitchens, and homeless shelters throughout the state. Inventory and distribution schedules are controlled by the Food Distribution Administrator housed at MDHS.
