Food Shelf Program Director: Cara McLain

Ron and Sarah thought that as two working adults they'd never need assistance with food for their family. But in a short time, an injury, Ron's unexpected job loss, and mounting medical bills wiped out their savings. The Food Shelf provided critical assistance at a time when they faced a choice between paying for Ron's medication and food for their family.
