Life is unpredictable....
For children these times of change can be most difficult to maneuver past. Especially if they are hungry.
That is why we have created FORK NOW
FORK NOW provides emergency, nutritional support for the times when children are confronted with fast declining levels of food security.
Below are several examples of situations when FORK NOW can be implemented:
- Loss of a family sustaining job
- Divorce
- Death of a parent or guardian
- Eviction
- Family Illness
- Fire
To apply for FORK NOW support, please contact your local school district’s Pupil Services representative.
- Northland Pines School District: Katie Stuckemeyer 715-479-8989 ext.4
- Phelps School District: Jason Pertile 715-545-2724 ext. 115
- Three Lakes School District:
Grades 7-12 Ryan Bock 715-546-3321
Grades 4K - 6 Cristin Opall 715-546-3323
A child does not need to attend the school but simply live inside these school district boundaries.
Families may be referred to the FORK NOW Committee for benefit approval by Vilas County Social Services.
(FORK NOW help will be available to Three Lakes School District children who live in Oneida County, through their Department of Social Services, in 2025)
