"I was not sure if I qualify for health insurance because of my income. Now I have Medicaid which takes care of all my healthcare cost. I can, without any stress, take care of my kids, my health and don't have to worry about huge medical bills. Thank you SACSS!"

"I am so thankful to SACSS for this regular supply of groceries to us during these testing times. I could not even imagine how my family could have survived without your support."

"My mother-in-law really looks forward to the virtual senior support group at SACSS. During the pandemic we were worried about how she would keep in touch with her friends. Not only did the staff teach her the technology but she looks forward to participating in the groups and playing Antakshari every week."
