While the United States (and most of the world for that matter) suffers through a recession, there are a large number of people going through some very difficult times. Times have been very tough, but I was excited to see that in Florida there is a Celiac support group who is doing something to help Celiacs in their area.
According to Gluten Free Living:
The Palm Beach County Support Group has a new food-assistance program that can help those who are facing hard economic times. Anyone in South Florida who has celiac disease or dermatitis herpetiformis and meets federal poverty guidelines can apply to receive a $25 monthly voucher to help with the high cost of gluten-free food.
President Phyllis Kessler said the current economy and worry about people who have lost their jobs prompted the group to start the program. She said the $25 should help cover the cost of a few essentials, like bread and cereal.
