We appreciate the Durango Herald highlighting how much of an increase we have seen in Food Assistance Programs during the pandemic. Many families who are now struggling in our community are utilizing our services as a supplement to offset decreases in income due to negative economic impact of the COVID Pandemic. Despite the numerous opinions related to the Supplemental Unemployment Benefit's, I am sure that we can all agree on the importance of making sure our neighbors, are not experiencing food insecurity.
