## Resource

San Diego County is racing to combat an impending food crisis as federal work requirements threaten to cut food assistance for 93,000 residents—especially veterans, homeless individuals, and former foster youth. With demand soaring to 230,000 households monthly, officials are launching six new food distribution sites funded by a $1 million budget allocation, aiming to start within 60 days. These events will not only hand out food but also help people enroll in benefits and meet work requirements through volunteer opportunities, turning crisis into a lifeline for the most vulnerable.
