To our fellow community members, with upcoming changes to SNAP, many of our Spokane neighbors will be impacted and may experience reduced access to food. Main Market Co-op has compiled a list of local food assistance resources to help during this time.

If you or someone you know needs support, please share this information. In times like these, it’s important to remember to help your neighbors. If you’re able, consider donating money or food, or volunteering your time.

We’ve also included a link to Northwest Harvest, a website that helps identify food banks and meal programs throughout the state. https://www.northwestharvest.org/our-work/food-access-network/?

At Main Market, we know that there is a possibility SNAP and other government assistance programs may be temporarily inaccessible or reduced on or after November 1st. For those who rely on these programs to access groceries, even a short disruption can mean difficult choices about food, bills, and other essentials.

This affects not only our shoppers but also our staff. Food insecurity is a shared reality across our communities—and some of the people who make the co-op run every day are also navigating the same challenges. We can show care through our actions toward each other by being understanding, patient, and connected.

We also ask everyone to be gentle with staff and volunteers at food pantries and community organizations distributing food for free or low cost. Many of these organizations are already working at capacity and will likely face even higher demand if benefits are delayed or reduced. A little patience and kindness can go a long way.

Together, we can uphold our cooperative values by centering compassion, equity, and community when and where it’s needed most.

This is not a complete list, but it's a good start. Please call ahead and ask about days and times that locations are open and serving. Share this post to help as many people as possible, and thank you ♥

Welcome to the second post in our “STaT Chat” series — where we answer your most frequently asked questions about the Sobering Triage and Transition Services (STaT) program! Got a question about STaT? Send us a message!

Here are a few we get frequently:
What hours is the sobering program open? STaT is open 24/7, every day of the year.

Do I need a referral? No referral needed! We accept walk-ups and call-ins anytime — bed availability permitting. The only requirement: you must be intoxicated.

Can you help get me into treatment or assessments? Yes! If you already have an assessment, our team can help get you into treatment. If you do not have an assessment, one can be completed while in sobering or upon admission to withdrawal management.

Today, October 13th, we recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day. It’s a time to reflect on the complex history of the United States and acknowledge the lasting impacts of colonization on Native communities.

Indigenous Peoples’ Day was first officially recognized in 1990 by South Dakota, which replaced Columbus Day with Native American Day. Other states followed, and in 2021, a presidential proclamation marked the first national recognition of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, a significant step toward honoring Native histories and voices.

This day is about acknowledging the trauma and resilience of Indigenous communities, while also inviting us to learn about the rich diversity of Indigenous peoples and cultures. It celebrates the vibrant traditions, cultures, and sovereignty of Indigenous peoples.

Today, October 10th, is World Mental Health Day! 🌎

This year’s theme is “Access to Services – Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies.” Millions of people around the world are affected by disasters, conflicts, and emergencies — and their mental health needs must not be overlooked.

The World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH) is calling on political and social leaders to provide substantial support so that everyone has access to professional mental health care. Inclusive mental health services strengthen communities and must reach everyone. To build resilient communities, we must break down barriers like stigma, discrimination, cost, and language.
