COVID-19 Resources for Members
Meal Delivery & Community Resources
California is under an official “shelter in place” order. That means all non-essential businesses are closed until further notice, and people are advised to only leave home for essential errands. This has left many people uncertain about how to meet their basic financial and food needs. The community resources listed below can help.
Before visiting any community resource in person, please call them first or consult their website for instructions on how to access their services. Many public agencies, including HPSM, are limiting direct contact as a preventive measure against COVID-19 transmission.
