Connecting Families to Food and Healthcare Resources

BEAM (Beaches Emergency Assistance Ministry) is powered by a team of compassionate volunteers committed to supporting individuals applying or reapplying for public benefits such as SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) and Medicaid, ensuring they have consistent access to food and healthcare services.

Easy Scheduling Options

To receive support, clients are encouraged to schedule an appointment by phone or in person at one of BEAM’s two convenient locations, Mayport Road or Jacksonville Beach. Making an appointment helps ensure that each individual receives the time and attention needed for personalized, practical assistance.

Mission Statement

We envision a future in which no Beaches resident goes hungry or is haunted by the fear of eviction. Our mission is to provide emergency assistance and a path to economic stability.
