The fair will connect families struggling socioeconomically to organizations that can help them meet needs at a one-stop-shop location. Agencies such as Manna, Good Food Collective, Pediatric Partners, Durango Adult Education, Housing Solutions, San Juan Public Health, pro-bono legal services, Los Companeros and others will present information to assist families.
If available to the family, bring identifying documents such as: driver’s license, birth certificate, Social Security card or mail identifying a home address, so agencies can sign the family up for resources on the spot.
A light lunch will be served and there will be hygiene kits, food bags, Goodwill vouchers and winter wear available.
