What you need to know about panhandling
Panhandling can be found in most areas of our county, generating many questions and complaints from our residents. While we may get a good feeling by providing money to an individual who panhandles, the reality is that those who are truly in need require more resources than small amounts of money.
The good news is that our county has many services and staff dedicated to help those in need. But we need your help.
