U.S. Senator Bob Casey joined Maternal and Family Health Services for a roundtable discussion about the infant formula shortage in Scranton last week. The Senator joined us at the future site of the new MFHS Circle of Care on South Washington Street, where he spoke with MFHS staff, as well as Victoria Bigelow, a local WIC program participant, about the challenges of the last several months.

Thank you to Senator Casey for joining us, and to Victoria for sharing her story.
