Hiawatha Public Library is a distribution site for the Healthy Kids Iowa program, which allows qualifying families to get assistance with feeding their kids aged 4-18 through the summer months.

Hiawatha Public Library will be a distribution site for Healthy Kids Iowa food in partnership with HACAP.

Once per month in June, July, and August, Iowa families who qualify for the Healthy Kids Iowa Pilot Program may come to the library's Community Room and get expanded access to additional food such as fruits, vegetables, dairy items, grains, and proteins. To see a full list of participating Health Kids Iowa sites, visit https://hhs.iowa.gov/healthy-kids-iowa.

How it Works

Families will complete the TEFAP application at each site and self-attest to eligibility (see below) to be approved for the program. Each child will receive up to $40 of food
per month in June, July and August.

Healthy Kids Iowa food is only available one time per month, per eligible child for the months of June, July and August.

You may only visit one site per month for Healthy Kids Iowa foods. Each site will have a monthly limit of children that can be served.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Households with children aged 4 to 18 at 185% or below the Federal Poverty Level (FPL).
  • Households that are eligible for The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) with children aged 4 to 18, are eligible to participate in this program.
