@tweetseymoure @WCPO@StateofOhio@CityOfCincy We do participate in the Poverty Collaborative and Project Lift in an effort to battle poverty. We have increased emergency assistance in the Prevention, Retention and Contingency program and improved community outreach around these programs so the needy know they are available.
@tweetseymoure @WCPO@StateofOhio@CityOfCincy Food assistance is a federal program paid for by federal money. The guidelines to qualify for food assistance and the amounts a family can receive are set by the federal government, not local agencies or government.
14,000 food assistance recipients visited the Cincinnati Museum Center's three museums over the past year through discounted access. We have similar relationships with the Zoo, Nature Center and Great Parks. Find out more about our partnerships: https://t.co/mEJXYC4eER
