Food stamp program to start June 1 in Mendocino County
Welfare Director Dennis Denny told county supervisors that the surplus commodity program ends in May and the food stamp program begins in June. Eligibility teams will certify over 1,000 families in April and May, with food stamp recipients soon surpassing commodity beneficiaries. The program costs about twice as much as commodities and requires more space in Ukiah and Fort Bragg offices.
