Results: One of the ways we demonstrate our commitment to assisting the community is by maintaining an open-door policy where every member is always welcome and through developing several support programs. Few of the areas where active projects are being undertaken to solve these problems include the following. There is a very strong food assistance programme that ensures that more than 200 individuals are fed at Wamsutta Food Cupboard each week. For those who wish to quit using tobacco, these approaches are known to work and have been very effective especially for the already addicted individuals.
