This is done on an emergency basis until long-term assistance can begin. They also operate the Twice Blessed Resale shop which provides clothing to those in need.

Mission Central provides free assistance programs including: food, clothing, legal assistance, after-school library and tutorial center, financial assistance and other organization referrals.
