NEWS: Senator Blunt Rochester Hosts Third Annual Constituent Resource Fair, Delawareans Receive Assistance

Dover, Del. - U.S. Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-Del.) today hosted her third annual Constituent Resource Fair at the DelOne Conference Center at Delaware Technical Community College's Terry Campus. More than 40 federal and state agencies and community organizations were in attendance to provide resources and assistance for Delawareans.

"From tax returns to veteran's benefits, housing assistance to Social Security, my Senate office is Delawareans' gateway to many of the public services they rely on," said Senator Blunt Rochester. "As a former congressional caseworker, I know that many people are unaware of the services and resources that they are entitled to. That is why I was incredibly proud to host my third annual Constituent Resource Fair today in Dover. Thank you to everyone who played a part in making today a success, from the Delawareans who came out, to our hosts at Del Tech, to all the agencies and organizations who helped connect folks to resources. I look forward to our continued partnerships on behalf of the First State."
