Resource Guide
ACCA has been working on a resource guide that is accessible to our community. While this information is not complete, we wanted to share what we had gathered while we continue working on building the library of information and developing a navigation tool. This information is not intended to replace a consumers own knowledge or resource.
In light of the recent notification around SNAP benefits and furlough status of many across Alaska, we are sharing Nutrition Resources first.
