Government Help for Your Family

Government Food and Medical Help by State

Find Your States Welfare Department for Food and Medical Benefits

Someone requested to know where I have this information, and I realized as I looked through my posts that though I mention it in a couple posts, I have not dedicated a whole post to government help yet. Its such a big need for so many families lately, with all the layoffs and pay cuts most of us have had to endure in the last year or two.

Here are some places you can go to find help for the things your family needs:

We got WIC when my kids were little. It was a great help. My daughter is 17 now and we got it back when they would deliver it to your door! Those were the days :) I hope lots of people find the help they need through your post!
