Waterloo Region Shares

Home

Welcome!

The WRS website provides a venue for knowledge-sharing between members of the local Food Assistance Network. Members are able to interact and access information and resources in order to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of food assistance services.

New articles of interest or news items will be updated periodically and posted on announcements. Visit our Resources page to find excellent resources on such topics as coping and prevention, advocacy, food safety and food security. Also if your organization (as a member of the Network) has information it would like to share with other Network members via the site, please contact Diana Bumstead, Network Liaison at dianab@waterlooregionshares.ca.
