Feed America integration case studies
How partners use Feed America's open-data food-assistance directory (EIN 92-1761881) at production scale. Each case documents the integration architecture, data flow, and downstream impact.
Healthcare social-determinants-of-health (SDOH) integration
How Findhelp (formerly Aunt Bertha) and Unite Us ingest Feed America's HSDS 3.0 Open Referral feed to populate food-assistance referrals for patients screened positive for food insecurity at hospital discharge. No bilateral DPA required — open standards conformance is the integration path.
AI assistant integration via Model Context Protocol
How AI assistants like Anthropic Claude (via MCP) and OpenAI Custom GPTs (via OpenAPI 3.0) call Feed America's tools directly to answer "where can I find food help near 90210?" with structured, real-time data — no per-platform custom integration.
