Emergency Food and Shelter Program
The Emergency Food and Shelter National Board Program (EFSP) was created in 1983 to supplement the work of local social service organizations within the United States, both private and governmental, to help people in need of emergency assistance, including rent/mortgage assistance, utility assistance, shelter, served meals, and food boxes. This collaborative effort between the private and public sectors has disbursed over $2.3 billion in Federal funds during its 22-year history.
