Family Services
The Family Services efforts at the Clintonville-Beech-wold Community Resources Center focus on a range of programs and special efforts for local families and individuals. From its Choice Food Pantry to counseling to health services and more, the agency attempts to meet neighbors’ needs and help them on the road to sustainability. Nearly 8,000 unique individuals were helped by the agency in 2016 — 9 percent more than the year before! The CRC provided more than 450,000 meals last year.
CRC Family Services and Choice Food Pantry
The CRC Family Services and Choice Food Pantry serves the Clintonville and surrounding communities through a choice food pantry, weekly produce distributions, community meals, access to Ohio Benefit Bank counselors, and other assistance.
Thanks to grants from The Columbus Foundation/Osteopathic Heritage Foundation, Medical Mutual of Ohio, individual donors, and the work of students at The Ohio State University Department of Design and College of Education and Human Ecology (Dietetics), the CRC has completed renovations at our 14 W. Lakeview Family Services Building. In 2017, CRC served from this small building nearly 500,000 meals to 2,680 unduplicated households in 66 ZIP codes in 14 Central Ohio counties.
If you'd like to volunteer at our choice food pantry or with produce distribution, please email crcvolunteers@clintonvillecrc.org. We also would be glad to accept your monetary and in-kind donations. For more information, please click here.
