On the next Your Call, we'll talk about who is living on food stamps and how they are making ends meet. 15% of Americans receive food stamps, which allocates an average of $4 per day. And the number of people relying on food stamp programs has risen with the recession. So how does this system work? Can you stay healthy on $4 a day? Join us at 10 or email us at feedback@yourcallradio.org. If you're on food stamps, how are you meeting your needs? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar, and You.
Guests:
Paul Ash, executive director of the San Francisco Food Bank
