ANNUAL PARTNER AGENCY MEETING
At the annual meeting of member organizations on September 27, 2023, we discussed new changes and initiatives that will improve our network's services to communities in need.
Among the topics discussed, we announced new extended hours, the implementation of a better data collection platform, and the upcoming launch of a pilot program to promote free food choice.
