Get Help

The Caring Center is open Monday through Friday from 9:00a.m. to Noon.

If you are one of many people who do not have sufficient resources to maintain a suitable lifestyle and you are a Cape Coral resident, you may qualify for help from the Cape Coral Caring Center. Because we know the minimal essentials of life are food and shelter, we are here to assist you if you need these essentials:

• Food items
• Electric bill assistance (when funds are available)
• Referrals to other agencies

To receive food assistance, all you need is a valid Cape Coral driver’s license or Florida ID AND a hard-copy proof of household income (Pay check stubs, food stamp letter, social security paperwork).

We are also here to help you with:

• Critical needs to cope with a negative economic situation on a short-term basis.
• To maximize services to individuals and families.
• To minimize duplication of services by various agencies.
• To help maintain a suitable standard of living..
