El a\u00f1o pasado, los programas Twin Cities Meals on Wheels sirvieron casi 1.7 millones de comidas a 9,844 personas. En esa cifra se incluyen m\u00e1s de 200 veteranos de las Ciudades Gemelas que recibieron servicios a trav\u00e9s del programa Meals for Veterans, aprobado por la Legislatura de Minnesota en 2023.<\/p>\n

Muchos veteranos no cumplen con los criterios de edad, ingresos o discapacidad que les ayudar\u00edan a cubrir el costo de las comidas, y este programa les ha proporcionado acceso a alimentos saludables y una conexi\u00f3n social. La financiaci\u00f3n continua de este programa garantizar\u00e1 que los veteranos en riesgo de inseguridad alimentaria y aislamiento social puedan recibir comidas. La financiaci\u00f3n de este programa expira el 30 de junio y estamos solicitando a la Legislatura que renueve la financiaci\u00f3n para continuar con este servicio para los veteranos.<\/p>\n

Los proyectos de ley sobre comidas para veteranos proporcionar\u00edan fondos renovados durante los pr\u00f3ximos dos a\u00f1os fiscales para servir comidas a domicilio a veteranos de cualquier edad en el \u00e1rea de servicio de Metro Meals on Wheels.<\/p>\n

Beneficios del programa Comidas para Veteranos<\/h2>\n

El programa Comidas para Veteranos va m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de simplemente ayudar a los veteranos con las comidas. Trabajamos en estrecha colaboraci\u00f3n con el Departamento de Asuntos de Veteranos de Minnesota y el Consejo de asistencia para veteranos de Minnesota (MACV)<\/a> para atender a los veteranos que corren un riesgo espec\u00edfico de quedarse sin hogar y sufrir aislamiento social.<\/p>\n

Los veteranos tambi\u00e9n se ofrecen como voluntarios para repartir comidas a otros veteranos cuando es posible. Como dice Rudy, un veterano de Bloomington: \u201cPara m\u00ed, no es tanto una red de seguridad como un salvavidas. Cuando vienen los voluntarios, es agradable poder hablar con otra persona, que puede ser un compa\u00f1ero veterano, y charlar durante un rato\u201d.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

C\u00f3mo puedes promover el programa Comidas para Veteranos<\/h2>\n

Las comisiones de la C\u00e1mara de Diputados y el Senado de Minnesota est\u00e1n decidiendo actualmente si incluir el programa \u00abComidas para veteranos\u00bb en el proyecto de ley final de financiaci\u00f3n general para veteranos. Usted puede ayudar pidiendo a su senador estatal, representante estatal y al gobernador Tim Walz que apoyen el programa \u00abComidas para veteranos\u00bb.
