State Addresses Food Insecurity for Community College Students - Cape May Herald

According to a release, during a visit to Middlesex County College, which earlier this year opened a food pantry for students, New Jersey Human Services Commissioner Carole Johnson stated the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) would be available to students in community college career and technical education programs. In response to what has been called a hidden crisis on college campuses, Johnson noted the Department of Human Services earlier this year met with advocates from Hunger Free New Jersey to discuss how to address food insecurity among college students, expand SNAP eligibility for college students, and raise awareness of food assistance on college campuses. https://www.capemaycountyherald.com/news/government/article_b8a7ba62-ec33-11e8-b850-b7ca31b6e368.html
