💙 Toolkit Thursday: Connecting Texas Families with Food Resources 🥫

Every family deserves access to nutritious food, and knowing where to find local resources can make a difference!

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has a resource to help Texans connect with food banks throughout the state. Whether you’re looking for resources for your family, a friend, or someone in your community, this is a great place to start.

🔗 Texas Food Bank Network Providers:
https://www.hhs.texas.gov/services/food/texas-food-bank-network-providers

📣 Let’s spread the word!

Do you know of a local food pantry, community resource, or organization helping families access food?

Drop their name or information in the comments so we can continue building a stronger, more connected community. 💙

Sometimes, sharing a resource is one of the simplest ways we can support one another.

A contact list of food banks in Texas that can assist in filling out a SNAP application and provide more information about SNAP and other nutrition programs in your area.

Su conocimiento y experiencia en el campo de la discapacidad y la educación serán de gran valor para las familias. La Dra.
