Monroe County Opportunity Program

This place offers a lot of resources for many people in need. If they can't help they probably can point you in the direction your looking for! Bonus sometimes they have free random foods (meat varys) in the lobby free for the publics needs. Trying to reach someone via phone can be hard at times and voicemail is there go too it seems but other than that they are a great service to the community

Just because people are struggling doesn't give your receptionist the right to treat them like they are dog poop on the bottom of her shoe.

I stop here everyday after work. Usually get the last picks on whatever it is they have for food but it's free food! Over ripe avocado for dip and over ripe bananas for bread or pies, small cucumbers for pickles. Most of the free foods have to be used pretty quick so you have to be creative with it. Very nice staff.

They are so helpful and very nice. As a senior, I appreciate this service immensely!!!
