RED LION, Pa. (WHTM) – Many low-income families don’t qualify for assistance or just qualify for a little bit, but a collaboration among organizations in York County aims to change that.
The York County Food Alliance includes numerous groups including Penn State Extension, WellSpan Health, and Lifepath Christian Ministries.
They hold Lifepath to Healthy Eating classes once a week for seven weeks for parents or grandparents with children under 19 in what’s known as the “food gap.” This includes families 185 percent or more over the poverty line who rely on charitable programs.
