• If you have celiac disease or a medically diagnosed gluten-intolerance you are eligible for gluten-free emergency food assistance. In order to receive gluten-free food from a participating pantry you must provide the pantry proof of medical need for a gluten-free diet. Please obtain a signed letter from your physician or dietician confirming that you have celiac disease or gluten-intolerance and bring it with you to the food pantry. The food pantry will keep it for their records.
