Households in our service area (west Wilson County from Hwy 109 to the Davidson County line) can receive client choice groceries and hygiene items (including meat, milk, eggs, produce, bread, and toilet paper) up to twelve times per year. Visits must be spaced at least one month apart. Proof of address dated within the previous 30 days for EACH ADULT in your household must be presented each time groceries are requested.
On your first visit you will fill out a short application. Then you will be able to fill out a food list, choosing what you would like to receive. While our volunteers are putting together your grocery order, you’re welcome to wait in your car or to help yourself to any of the free food, clothing, or other items in the lobby. We’ll let you know when your order is finished, and volunteers will meet you in the parking lot to help load up your vehicle.
Open Monday – Friday / 8:30am – 12:30pm. No appointments necessary.
It does take a few minutes to pull together each individualized order,
so it is greatly appreciated if you’re able to come no later than 12:15.
Households in our service area (west Wilson County from Hwy 109 to the Davidson County line) are eligible for emergency utility assistance. The Mt. Juliet Help Center may assist on a limited financial basis with electric, natural gas, water, or sewer bills when the account is past due or in danger of experiencing a service interruption. Please bring a copy of the most recent bill with you, or be prepared to pull it up on your phone to send it to us for printing.
PLEASE reach out to us as soon as possible if you think your service might be disconnected soon.
There might be more options available to you, but you will need time to explore them and take the necessary steps before it’s too late.
Open Monday – Friday / 8:30am – 12:30pm. No appointments necessary.
We offer free, gently used clothing to anyone in need in the community. Our clothing includes everyday wear and shoes for men, women, and children, as well as seasonal items like coats and warm clothing in the winter. Adult clothing is available in the lobby, and children’s clothing is available by gender/size request. Proof of address is not required. If you need clothing assistance, please reach out to see how we can help!

When the kids are home for the summer and not receiving free- or reduced-price breakfasts/lunches at school, the Mt. Juliet Help Center can help fill the gap. Each week, families with children attending K-12 west Wilson County schools (or homeschooling in west Wilson County) can pick up one box of food for each child. Each box contains about four days’ worth of breakfast, lunch, and snack items.
Children can receive one Summer Food Program box per week. Families can choose which time works best for their schedule, and boxes will be available for pickup at the Help Center. Please return empty boxes each time you pick up new ones!
Choose from one of the below weekly distribution times:
Through Saturday, July 19, 2025
Tuesdays: 4:00pm to 6:00pm @ Mt. Juliet Help Center
-OR-
Saturdays: 9:00am to 11:00am @ Mt. Juliet Help Center
Back to school supplies can get expensive! If you are having trouble finding room in the budget to purchase basic supplies for your child, the Mt. Juliet Help Center would like to help. After you have registered your child and provided proof of school enrollment, your child will be able to pick out their own new backpack and will receive school supplies based on the grade level and supply list published by the school they will be attending in the fall. We can’t provide everything on each list, but we can give your student a good start at a great school year! The last day to register is JULY 16TH, so don’t delay!
