The cards are being made available through a program sponsored by the National Association of Counties. There is no cost to county taxpayers for the county and NACo to make the cards available to area residents.
The cards can be picked up at Shenandoah Valley Social Services offices in Verona and Waynesboro and at the Augusta County Government Center.
