News & Notes

TUESDAY, April 9, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Changes to the federal program that helps pay for groceries for low-income moms and their young children means that soon these families will have access to more fruits, vegetables and whole grains, U.S. health officials said Tuesday.

The final rule changes for the program known as WIC make an increase in monthly cash vouchers for fruits and vegetables permanent -- a change first enacted during the pandemic. Shoppers can also add canned fish, fresh herbs and lactose-free milk to their carts, among other options. The voucher change will take effect by June, officials said.

LEWISTOWN — PA CareerLink Mifflin County, in conjunction with Mid Penn Legal Services, will offer free Pardon and Expungement Clinics on March 28 and April 4. Appointments are available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at PA CareerLink Mifflin County, MCIDC Plaza, Bldg. 58, 6395 SR103N, Lewistown.

During these appointments, participants will meet one-on-one with an attorney to learn whether their criminal charges are eligible for expungement or sealing. They will be provided the required forms as well as advice on filing expungement petitions.

Pre-registration is required so the attorney can research your case before you meet. To schedule an appointment, call PA CareerLink at (717) 248-4942 before March 21.
