This morning, Mayor Freddie O'Connell joined Clarksville Mayor Joe Pitts, and Second Harvest of Middle Tennessee President and CEO Nancy Keil to address resources for Nashvillians facing a loss of nutrition assistance because of the ongoing federal government shutdown.
Featuring resources from Second Harvest and Metro's human service agencies, residents can connect with resources or places to donate via this resource hub at Nashville.gov/food. The hub includes information about Second Harvest's Hunger Can't Wait campaign.
