Thanks to all for Stamp Out Hunger drive support
The Human Concerns Center thanks postal workers volunteers and the Oswego community for the May 14 Stamp Out Hunger food drive. The event mobilized a dozen volunteers to move food from the Oswego Post Office to 85 E Fourth St, with weeks ahead to sort by expiration. The center has run an emergency pantry for 28 years serving Oswego City School District residents with a three day supply per family, plus guidance on SNAP WIC and other programs.

Cuomo limits initial opioid prescriptions to seven days after a first visit, requires ongoing physician training, and mandates clearer risk information from pharmacists. It also eases treatment access by ending prior insurance authorization after certain criteria and ensures at least two weeks of covered care before insurer review. Hospitals must expand discharge planning linking patients to local treatment options.
