St. Joseph Social Service Center

St. Joseph Social Service Center helps people in Elizabeth through food, health programs, and support services delivered with dignity and compassion. Its programs are designed to bring people and communities together while responding to hunger and related needs.

Through its food pantry, the center distributes food with support from the Community FoodBank, volunteers, and community contributors. The organization also works to make healthier food choices more available and identifies personal-care items and diapers among needed donations.

Additional resources include clothing and household items, community education opportunities, and a Community Share Agriculture program.
