Violence Shelters Seek Funding For Food
KENTUCKY....
Domestic violence shelters across Kentucky are being hit hard after their exclusion from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Commidities Program came without warning. The federal grant was traditionally used to buy food for residents. Federal officials say this type of shelter was never supposed to get food aid in the first place. Instead, it was reserved for places like homeless shelters and soup kitchens. A recent federal government audit turned up the long-time mistake. Those violence shelters are now seeking funding from donors.
