Town Hall: Food Access for a Lifetime

Connect and learn with us this month as we work toward making sure that Missourians of all ages have food on the table! Empower Missouri’s team will be holding Town Halls this summer and fall to hear from Missouri communities.

For older adults good nutrition is key to continuing to live an independent and healthy life, but with rising food costs, many older Missourians are finding it harder to make ends meet.

The good news? There are resources and programs available to help.

Join Empower Missouri on Thursday, August 21st, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m., at the Riechmann Indoor Pavilion at Stephens Lake Park for an informative and engaging event where you can learn about:

*State and federal programs like SNAP that support a healthy, balanced diet.
*What programs you may qualify for.
*How you can help influence policy change to end hunger.

Attendees will also be entered for a special prize, and lunch will be provided at no cost for attendees, so please RSVP to let us know you’re coming: EmpowerMissouri.org/COMO-Food
