[quote=Anonymous]OP, I work at a food charity in Fairfax County.

Are you in the Alex part of FX Co?  City proper?

Apply for food stamps SNAP Program NOW.  You can apply on line and there's a lag time of about thirty days (or more if there's a hold up on your application).

You need a social worker to help guide you through affiliated processes and this person can advise of local resources available to help.

Make plans NOW to obtain food via a local food bank and/or pantry.  In general, a pantry is small scale and will not have refrigerated items and produce, a bank is akin to a grocery store.  Find out where the closest free food resource is and how you obtain food.

Make an appointment, if required, at the food pantry and find out how often you can visit to get food.  Keep the appointment!

Food For Others has a free food drop off that does a circuit weekly.  This could help you tremendously.  You simply wait for the truck as a designated location and are given a bag of groceries, no questions asked.

If you can get away with not buying any groceries for a few months, this will be a huge savings for you.  If I can help further, just post and ask.
