With a record number of area families struggling with increased hardships this year due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Community Services Agency is launching its 2020 Holiday Basket Program. “The need has never been greater,” said CSA Executive Director Sonte DuCote. This program provides support to needy union and community families for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
