Our Story
Volunteers helps stock the first IOCP food shelf near downtown Wayzata.
From a food shelf to a best in class human services organization
What started as a small food shelf has delivered on a community promise for nearly 50 years: We will build a community where everyone counts, where all children are cherished and protected, and where individual and family life is valued and supported by all.
Since 1979, this community has been doing just that: leading, rallying and igniting the power of people to meet basic needs and provide strengthening services for those living here, our neighbors.
While we are not religious in our work, our name, Interfaith Outreach & Community Partners (IOCP), is a nod to our history because many faith communities joined efforts to address local need. They knew they could be more effective working in collaboration with each other.
We are honored to maintain and carry forward the cross-stakeholder approach established so many years ago. We are an organization with deep ties to all who live, work and play in our community.
