The DTA should give you emergency food stamps within seven days if
you are homeless and have no money for food. Some offices will give
you emergency food stamps within two days.
Some DTA offices may give you food if they have it available. Ask
your caseworker about getting food if you have no food stamps or money.
You also should call Project Bread at 800-645-8333 to find out about
food pantries near your motel or shelter placement.
