Henry speaks with Stacy Janes, program coordinator for the Community Relief Fund of Glasgow and Barren County, about how the federal SNAP shutdown is increasing demand for local food pantries and hurting families who rely on benefits.

The episode explains how people can access help — SNAP applications through the Department of Child-Based Services, or immediate food assistance from Community Relief at 317 Columbia Avenue — and highlights the pantry’s hours, ID requirements, and phone line for support.

Stacy describes rising need, recent distribution numbers, and urges monetary and food donations so the community can continue to feed vulnerable families during this disruption.
