Clinical Assistant Professor Ayesha Ghazi Edwin spoke with MLive about the effects federal cuts will have on Food Gatherers, the lead agency for hunger relief in Washtenaw County.
“Our county also happens to be experiencing one of the fastest rising rates of homelessness in our history with specific effects to older adults,” she said. “These challenges weren’t created overnight and they won’t be solved by one action, but they do call us to act locally when federal support falls short.”
