The Metropolitan Action Commission (MAC) announces the full reopening of all eight agency locations after temporary closures caused by Winter Storm Fern.

Agency staff conducted site visits on Friday to ensure all facilities were ready to welcome the community back safely.

"We are excited to return to full operations and continue serving families across Davidson County," said Executive Director Jamekia Bies. "While the storm caused significant disruptions, our team worked diligently to prepare our sites and ensure a smooth transition back to normal services."
