Nutrition

West Hartford offers a variety of nutritional services for residents.  You will find detailed information for each program below.

 

Food Pantry

The Division of Human Services maintains a large food pantry. It depends on donations of food from our community - individuals, families, neighborhoods, schools and businesses - and provides nutritious food in times of need.  For information regarding the use of our food pantry, please call our office at (860) 561-7561.

 

Foodshare Mobile Van

The West Hartford Food Pantry also partners with Foodshare to provide residents with fresh produce once a month.  Click Here for more information on Foodshare's mobile food van, including schedule information.

 

SNAP - Food Stamps

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as Food Stamps, is a Connecticut Department of Social Services program that helps low-income individuals and families afford the cost of food at grocery stores and farmers’ markets.  Volunteers are available at our office by appointment to take applications.  If you are interested in scheduling an appointment or would like more information, please call (860) 561-7561.
