FOR NOW, LOCAL FOOD PANTRIES ARE WELL-STOCKED
(Richmond, IN)--Wayne County leaders had discussed the possibility of using opioid relief money to help stock local food pantries in the wake of SNAP reductions. It appears, though, that that won’t be necessary – at least for now. Here’s Wayne County Commissioner Aaron Roberts this week: "At this point in time, there are no real needs from the food pantries. They're all fine. They're running the programs well even though they're having an uptick in usage." Commissioners would still consider using opioid funding if needed.
