CARES Act Funding for Mid and Northern Michigan Announced

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has announced $200 million for communities across the country to help "local service organizations that provide critical resources to people with economic emergencies, which include our hungry and homeless populations." The funding is part of the CARES Act that passed Congress on March 27.

"This funding will help take care of vulnerable people in mid and northern Michigan," said Congressman John Moolenaar, who voted for the CARES Act in March.
