The Sac County Family Development Center is the information,

offered by New Opportunities, Inc. to serve families, individuals and elderly

The center helps individuals and families access food during emergencies

which enables individuals to purchase food at discounted prices in
exchange for two hours of community service.
Their other programs include financial counseling, energy assistance,
tenant based rental assistance, help with clothing and school supplies, and
a partnership with the Elderbridge Agency on Aging to help seniors age 60
