The factory where Jason worked closed down 4 months ago, and neither he nor his wife have been able to find work. He receives unemployment benefits, but the small amount of money he has saved is now gone, and he is concerned about feeding his wife and three children, ages 3, 6, and 8, especially because his wife has now found out that she is pregnant again.
- What assistance might be available to Jason and his family?
- Jason’s 3-year-old son has a severe nut allergy. He cannot eat peanut butter, and they have to be very careful that all the foods he eats are nut-free. Because of this problem, are there other resources that may be available to help them?
