Photos: La Plata Family Center gives away food supplies

Christina Knickerbocker, left, food equity supervisor with La Plata Family Center, along with fellow staff members and volunteers, sort through 4,728 pounds of food on Tuesday that was given away in the parking lot of Christ the King Lutheran Church. The La Plata Family Center in partnership with the Care and Share Food Bank of Southwest Colorado are holding the event to help people deal with a change in their SNAP benefits that have ended or been reduced. This is the second food giveaway with over 600 people showing up at the last event, and the center hopes to hold one more. (Jerry McBride/Durango Herald)
