What we do
Junction City Local Aid provides assistance in the form of food, clothing, utility bill support, prescription drug assistance and related services to low-income individuals and families in the Junction City, Oregon area. We focus on meeting the needs of people in short-term crises, assisting them while they get back on their feet.
Our services
We operate as a food pantry to provide emergency food boxes and staple food items. We can also assist with past-due utility bills, vouchers for prescription medication and bus tokens, and we have available free used clothing and blankets.
Who is eligible for our assistance
Food and other assistance is provided to residents of the Junction City School District who meet income guidelines. Come by our office during business hours to talk to us or fill out an application.
