In 2011, 1.75 million Ohioans received food assistance benefits, more commonly known as food stamps. The Ohio’s Community Action Agencies are initiating a Food Stamp Challenge April 30-May 4 in honor of Community Action Month to give participants a view of what life can be like for these low-income Ohioans.
