Dear FRCS Families,
We are reaching out today to share information about community support services available across Massachusetts. As you may know, the government shutdown has caused funding for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to be delayed, which may impact households that rely on these benefits.
Below are helpful links for food, health, and other support services:

Food Assistance in Massachusetts
Visit these regional food banks and organizations for additional support:
• Eastern MA – Greater Boston Food Bank
• Central MA – Worcester County Food Bank
• Western MA – Food Bank of Western Massachusetts
• Northeastern MA – Merrimack Valley Food Bank
These organizations, along with Project Bread, offer help locating food pantries, meal programs, and benefits-support services.
Local Health Support
Please reach out to FRCS District Nurse Leader, Cathy Alix, RN for additional resources. Your local public health nurse may also have additional area resources and supports available.

At FRCS, we care deeply about the well-being of all our families. We also recognize that not every household is affected. If this information is not relevant for your situation, we encourage you to consider forwarding it to someone—friend, neighbor, or community member—who may benefit. Supporting one another strengthens our entire community.
Thank you for your continued care, support, and partnership as we work to ensure all families feel supported and connected.
Warmly,
Foxborough Regional Charter School
