The Del Norte Emergency Feeding Task Force (EFTF) is a multi-agency collaboration designed to strengthen our ability to respond to both chronic food insecurity and emergency disruptions. Facilitated by the Del Norte & Tribal Lands Community Food Council, the EFTF brings together more than 30 partners—including Tribal governments, community-based organizations, food pantries, public health agencies, and government departments such as OES and DHHS.
The Task Force meets regularly to coordinate planning, share resources, assess community needs, and improve local food resilience. Its work includes developing the Del Norte Multi-Agency Disaster Feeding Plan (MADFP), mapping emergency feeding resources, and establishing systems that allow rapid, equitable response during crises.
During activations—such as the recent SNAP disruption—the EFTF operated as a unified network rather than in silos, ensuring clear communication, coordinated distribution, culturally relevant feeding strategies, and rapid scaling of services. This collaborative structure strengthens both everyday food access and the county’s capacity to respond effectively during disasters and disruptions.
