On Friday, March 1, Mercer Street Friends opened a Choice Food Pantry at Luis Muñoz-Rivera Elementary School, the third pantry in the Trenton Public School District. With 27% of Trenton residents experiencing food insecurity, school-based pantries are critical in addressing food gaps for children and their families.
We believe in the power of people investing in people. Our Family and Parent Engagement Program is critical to Mercer County families living in poverty particularly for pregnant women, single parents, parents caring for children with special needs, and those who are survivors of childhood trauma.
