Food Among First Sacrifice
Of The Hard-Pressed Elderly
"Elderly persons often
must survive on a small
pension they receive monthly
and in many cases food is
among one of the first items
cut back to save money,
Mrs. Billie Fleming, outreach
coordinator for food
stamps, said this week.
"This is the reason, she
said, that older residents of
Warren County have been
targeted for special attention
in the Food Stamp
program.
"We think there are many
elderly persons in our
county who either do not
know they qualify for food
stamps or won't apply for
them because they think it's
a welfare program," Mrs.
Fleming explained. "We
want to reach these people.
Most folks on fixed incomes
with few additional resources
would qualify for food
stamps."
"What we would like to
emphasize," Mrs. Fleming
said, "is that participation
In this program is no
different from receiving
other benefits designed and
deserved by the elderly such
as Social Security, Supplemental
Security Insurance,
tax breaks, etc. The Food
Stamp Program is not even
a welfare program because
people actually pay for the
stamps. There should be no
stigma associated with the
use of the stamps and no
hesitation to apply."
The program is used to
stretch the food dollar to
insure good nutrition. Most
of the elderly on fixed
incomes really need the
extra food the program can
provide to stay healthy.
"Nutrition is a recognized
problem of the elderly,"
says Nathan Yelton, Assistant
Secretary for the
Division on Aging under the
Department of Human Resources.
"I am extremely
distressed at the low rate of
participation of those on
fixed incomes who use food
stamps. Elderly people can
realize a tremendous benefit
from this program both by
improving their budget and
their health." He continued
that the Division on Aging
would encourage food stamp
usage through various private
and government agencies
that serve older adults.
John Kerr, Head of the
Food Stamp Program in
North Carolina, plans to
promote participation of the
elderly statewide. "Hunger
is the most degrading
among all of the adversities
the low income elderly
suffers," he said. "It would
seem to demonstrate a
shameful inability of our
culture to satisfy this most
fundamental human necessity
and implies society's
neglect of the elderly.
County departments of
social services across the
state are making a special
effort to reach out and offer
this benefit to our senior
citizens."
