Food Pantries
Everyone needs a helping hand now and then. At JFSLA, our doors are open for you. At the SOVA Community Food & Resource Program, we’re here to make sure everyone in our community has access to fresh, healthy groceries, essential personal care items, and connections to additional resources that can support you and your family.
To make your life easier and save you time, we invite all our neighbors to schedule food pantry visits online, allowing for shorter wait times and smoother service at any SOVA pantry location.
You can schedule food pantry visits here or at SOVA pantries. Please note: ONLY existing clients with an account are able to schedule pantry visits online.

We’re excited to introduce the new Farmers Market design at our pantries! We have re-designed our space to create a more personal experience for you, where you can select the groceries that best suit your tastes and needs—just like shopping at your neighborhood farmers market.
Why You’ll Love our new Farmers Market:
- It’s all about you—choose what fits best for you and your family.
- We’ll be able to stock more of what you love, ensuring popular items are available when you need them.
- With an organized, streamlined setup, your visits will be as smooth and welcoming as possible.
New ID Requirement:
When you visit us, please bring a photo ID with your name and a barcode (such as a driver’s license, state ID, passport, or even a Costco or credit card with your photo). Photos of IDs won’t be accepted; we’ll need to see the physical card.
Do you have questions? Reach out to us at 818-988-7682 or email services@jfsla.org. We’re here to help and look forward to seeing you!
