The State supplies us with items. As the State provides supplies it will be made available to residents. We encourage you to purchase any necessary supplies as you need them as we do not know what is being delivered in the truck or when individual items will run out. Please be understanding if all supplies are not available at the PODs site at all times. We are working with the State of Louisiana to resupply sites as often as practically possible.
