Iowa April cheese and butter aid expands for needy East Iowans
Despite threats of cuts, Iowa will distribute about 1 million pounds of processed American cheese and several thousand pounds of butter this month through HACAP and DSS. The plan uses Illinois and Wisconsin processors to convert cheddar into 5 pound loaves, with Lopez Evans praised for support. Linn County expects 61,200 pounds of cheese and 16,800 pounds of butter, while Cedar Rapids and surrounding counties will share more than 100,000 pounds of cheese and 39,000 pounds of butter in the April distribution with eligibility based on net household income and deductions. Distribution sites and hours are listed across multiple towns and dates next week.
