Where to get free food?

[EdM]

I have been out of work since Oct. 2010. As of yet, I have been unable to obtain a new job. My criminal background has seen to that. My wife is also currently seeking employment, to no avail. My family has used up my 401K. My family needs helps with food, but I am also unable to take care of rent or utilities. We have cell phones, but no home phone. Using wireless produced by the apartment complex.

Why are you going in circles on the site? Did you try the navigation bars on the left side?
For free food, use this resource. http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/food_banks.html Just select your state.
As far as the medications and prescriptions, then use the navigation bar as well on the left margin. There are programs for free prescriptions and medications, from non-profits, national groups, and even pharmaceutical companies.

There are also government food assistance programs, like TANF programs or SSI. And the new increase in food stamp benefits will help many people in need. Contact your local government,
