The homebound, elderly, food insecure and those with mental health issues cannot be abandoned in a time of crisis. While our doors will be closed to the public to help curtail the spread of COVID-19, and township staff will be working remotely as much as possible, we are committed to delivering needed assistance via alternative means."
