If Hurricane Sandy wiped out your GF food supply...there's help available...

The Westbay CAP Marketplace gluten-free program is up and running

The Westbay Community Action Program launched a gluten-free food pantry for people with celiac disease this year, serving the Warwick, West Warwick and East Greenwich communities.

If you have lost all you GF food due to a power outage, you should apply to the West Bay Cap GF Food Pantry. They provide emergency food assistance on a one-time basis, and you can apply to the program to see if you qualify for food assistance on an ongoing basis.
In order to participate in the regular, ongoing gluten-free program, you will need to bring a doctor’s note or a note from a registered dietitian to the Program Service Office, certifying that you have celiac disease or a gluten allergy . Once you are enrolled in the program, you can come to the Marketplace once a month and receive a choice of foods labeled gluten-free, as well as meat, pre-made salads, etc. that the Marketplace may have available.  For more information, call 732-4660, Ext. 140, or visit 211 Buttonwoods Ave., Warwick.
