Food security within our community and ensuring the ability of our local residents and families to nourish their bodies with good food continues to be a major priority for Chaffee County Government leaders. Departments across the County, as well as many community partners, have been actively monitoring food access issues and have developed a local response action plan. This includes the food access document for Chaffee County, which is maintained by the County Community Foundation. The document is in English and Spanish, and can be found on the Foundation's website: https://www.chaffeecommunity.org/safetynet
