The Citywide Food Access Team supports free food programs for San Franciscans who need supplementary food assistance, regardless of income and background. the group's programs and grants prioritize equity, dignity, community voice, and culturally appropriate food. 

The Team began as part of the San Francisco’s COVID-19 Command Center for coordinating citywide emergency services. During the pandemic, the group reached more than 40,000 people by collaborating with community-based organizations (CBOs) on food programs including the Isolation/Quarantine Food Helpline, Great Plates, Meals in Place SF, and SF-Marin Food Bank’s 20 pop-up pantries.

The Team continues to support 30 CBO grantees whose programs prioritize:

  • Fresh, culturally appropriate groceries including fruits, vegetables, protein, and grains
  • Grocery vouchers to increase choice, dignity, and purchasing power
  • Meal vouchers for those with limited access to kitchen space or limited time to prepare meals such as single-room occupancy (SRO) residents and families with children
