San Diego County「安全网桥梁」食物发放点今冬扩增一倍 新增六处站点

San Diego County政府10月15日宣布,县「安全网桥梁」(Safety Net Bridge)食物发放计划今冬将新增六处发放点,站点数量翻倍,新增站点将设在县方依据数据确定的高需求邮编区域。
县政府公布的预期新站点包括莱蒙格罗夫(Lemon Grove)、山地帝国(Mountain Empire)、纳欣纳尔城(National City)、圣伊西德罗(San Ysidro)与San Diego东南部社区,2027年还将讨论增设更多站点。该计划由县政府与San Diego食物银行(San Diego Food Bank)、Feeding San Diego合作运营;今年8月8日至10月10日期间,计划已在16场活动中为超过2,400户家庭提供食物。部分发放点同时提供疫苗接种、心理健康转介、住房资源及长者与家庭服务。
县政府表示,联邦食品福利规定变化已影响本地居民:自今年6月以来,约2,200名San Diego County居民因联邦工作要求重新实施而失去食品福利,同期超过3.7万人面临续期,其中近8,000人未完成续期手续。县政府另设联邦影响援助中心(Federal Impacts Assistance Hub)提供相关资源。
San Diego County to Double Safety Net Bridge Food Distribution Sites With Six New Locations This Winter
San Diego County announced on October 15 that it will double its Safety Net Bridge food distribution program this winter, adding six new locations in high-need ZIP codes identified through county data.
Anticipated new sites named by the county include Lemon Grove, Mountain Empire, National City, San Ysidro and Southeastern San Diego, with additional locations under discussion for 2027. The program is operated with the San Diego Food Bank and Feeding San Diego. Between August 8 and October 10, it served more than 2,400 households across 16 events. Several sites now combine food distribution with vaccinations, behavioral health connections, housing resources and services for seniors and families.
The expansion comes as federal benefits changes affect local residents. The county said about 2,200 people in San Diego County have lost food benefits since June because of re-implemented federal work requirements; of more than 37,000 people up for renewal in the same period, nearly 8,000 did not complete renewal paperwork. Additional help is available through the county's Federal Impacts Assistance Hub.
