State Rep. Jasmine Clark, D-Lilburn, is inviting families who need help during the COVID-19 pandemic to come out and get food assistance this weekend.

Clark and the Atlanta-North Georgia Labor Council will hold a community food distribution event at 10 a.m. on Saturday at Iglesia Cristo Vive, also known as Lilburn Alliance Church, at 5915 Lawrenceville Highway in Tucker.

Clark said the event will be conducted on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. The event will be done in a drive-thru format, trying to be as contactless as possible, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
