Local Resources in LA County – A dedicated group of volunteers has been compiling a list of food, housing, health, transportation, and education resources for the coronavirus crisis that is divided into three general categories: children and youth, adults, and elderly. Please view this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S-WJaMa4q3yNrEBfSFKEdSQArcNc_MTI2LiUA63Ycyg/preview. From this list, we wanted to highlight:
Everytable – offering FREE FOOD to EVERYONE, this includes delivering meals to seniors at their home. Call the Everytable Helpline at 323-458-6487 for questions and more information. View updates on their Instagram page.
El Torito – offering FREE KIDS MEALS for children under the age of 12. View updates on their Facebook page.
Grocery Shopping for Seniors – ALL Northgate Gonzalez Markets and Super A Foods will offer 1 hour that is exclusively dedicated for seniors to grocery shop only. ALL Vallarta Supermarkets will offer 1 hour that is dedicated for seniors, disabled people and pregnant women to grocery shop only. Refer to the Google doc above for dates/times. Note, Northgate Gonzalez Markets does offer grocery delivery services.
Grocery Stores – Per Mayor Garcetti, grocery stores will continue to be stocked during the coronavirus outbreak, so please avoid panic-buying or over-buying. Only take what you need, as many people are not fortunate enough to buy a 2 week supply of food at once.
Per Governor Newsom, people enrolled in programs such as, Medi-Cal for health care, CalFresh for food assistance, CalWORKS for indigent families, will be able to keep them, uninterrupted for the next 90 days until June 17.
