CAPI Food Shelf

CAPI USA operates a culturally-specific food shelf in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, serving low-income individuals and families in Hennepin County who meet eligibility requirements. The food shelf, part of the broader CAPI organization that provides comprehensive support services to immigrants and refugees in the Twin Cities, offers culturally specific foods, fresh fruits, and vegetables through a client-choice shopping model, allowing participants to select items that meet their dietary and family needs. The organization is a Certified SuperShelf and has roots tracing back to serving refugees after the Vietnam War, though it has since expanded its services to address the broader needs of immigrant and refugee communities.
