Budget Meeting- York County Court House- December 15

Budget Meeting- York County

Court House- December 15

The York County Shelter Programs, along with the Southern Maine Area Agency on Aging, Home Health Visiting Nurses of Southern Maine, York County Community Action, Caring Unlimited, Community Dental, including the York County Shelter Food Pantry may lose $31,000 in funding if the County Budget Committee follows the recommendations of the York County Board of Commissioners. The commissioners recently voted to eliminate funding for York County Shelter Programs.

The demands of the York County Shelter Programs have dramatically increased in the past months, providing help for low-income people who

might not be able to get by without this help.

You can help by contacting your county budget committee delegate.

(The contact information for the York County Budget Committee

members is listed below).

Urge the budget committee to turn down the commissioners’

recommendation for cuts. Urge the budget committee to vote YES to support funding for York County Shelter Programs food pantry.

Individuals are also encouraged to attend a budget meeting on Wed.

Dec. 15 at 7 p.m. at the York County Court House in Alfred. If you would like more information please contact Joan Sylvester at the York County Shelter Programs at 324-1137 or email: joans@ycspi.org
