How it works

The ATLAS of Lyon County offices have an "Emergency Pantry" for those individuals that need assistance outside of the normal "Bread of Life" Food Distribution. This program can be utilized by setting up an appointment with ATLAS of Lyon County staff to discuss your needs and your specific circumstances. An intake form will be filled out that asks for the information pertaining to your "emergency." Need will be subject to verification. If approved, a food box will be provided based on the information provided. Appointments may be made Monday-Thursday from 9AM-4:00PM, with the exception of the Bread of Life weeks, by calling or emailing the ATLAS of Lyon County offices. It is advised that all appointments for the Emergency Pantry be planned in advance, as "walk-in" availability will be dependent on staff's daily schedule.
