Food Security & Basic Needs
For 74 years, CCS has been providing crucial support to the low-income and unhoused in Lane County. Our work assists thousands across Lane County who, for many reasons, struggle with securing necessities like food, clothing, rent, utilities and employment, and are often one paycheck away from becoming unhoused.
Food Pantries
When grocery bills strain your budget, you're not alone. Hundreds of families throughout Lane County rely on our food pantries each month to help put nutritious meals on their tables. Our Community Service Centers in Springfield and Eugene provide fresh produce, pantry staples, and culturally appropriate foods to ensure everyone in our community has access to the nourishment they need to thrive.
