Stearns County Human Services Division Director Janet Goligowski joined me on WJON today. She talked about who qualifies for Food Support and Refugee assistance.

Approximately 4,400 Stearns County residents are scheduled to miss February SNAP benefits due to the partial Federal Government shutdown. I talked with Janet Goligowski from Stearns County Human Services today on WJON.
