Free groceries to be provided for Prince George's County residents.

The Prince George's County Memorial Library System will be passing out free groceries to county residents until June at select branch libraries.

The Prince George's County Memorial Library System started a program in partnership with the Prince George's County Health Department called "Community Health Worker in the Library."

According to a press release, this program will allow Prince George's County residents to take a preventative health assessment and receive free groceries.

PGCMLS says in their release that groceries are available for pickup one to two days a week until June at certain PGCMLS branch libraries. Faces masks are required for all visitors ages 2 and up, according to the release. Up to 100 grocery bags will be available each week at each location.
