  2. Benton Franklin Legal Aid Society, Legal Aid Application and Home page. The application page gives the Kennewick address as 5219 W. Clearwater Ave. Suite 5. The phone number and hours come from the Washington Department of Health community resource listing, Legal Assistance offered at Benton Franklin Legal Aid, since the Legal Aid site lists neither. The listing gives the suite as 5A. ↩

  3. Benton Franklin Health District, Food Near You Resource Guide, updated January 21, 2026, gives the address, phone number and Wednesday hours. The Richland School District page, Food Support for Richland School District Families, links the pantry website as svdppasco.org and confirms the Wednesday hours, but lists a different phone number, (509) 783-7020. The Health District guide, the St. Patrick parish bulletin and DSHS listings all give (509) 544-9315, which this page uses. ↩

  4. Second Harvest Inland Northwest, Give Food. The Give Food page gives the Tri-Cities address, phone number and Monday through Thursday hours. Second Harvest lists Mobile Market food distributions in Pasco on its events calendar; see Pasco events. Another Second Harvest page lists Pasco box pickup hours as 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, against 8:30 AM on the Give Food page; this page uses the Give Food page hours. ↩
