Families have struggled to find formula for weeks, following supply chain disruptions and a safety recall
Low-income families are struggling to feed their infants amid the national shortage. A plant shutdown and supply chain issues are to blame.
The first shipment of about 12,000 12-ounce cans is expected to arrive late next week. Details about where and when the formula will be distributed have not yet been finalized, said Solis’ spokeswoman, Kimberly Ortega.Part of the supply will be handed out through the Department of Public Health’s Nurse-Family Partnership Program, which offers home visitation services to new mothers, many of whom are or have been in foster care.
Formula will also be distributed at events hosted by the county. Details will be made public soon, Ortega said. In addition, the county’s Department of Children and Family Services is purchasing $500,000 worth of infant formula that will be distributed to families served by the agency.
