“Social services in the St. Joseph area are struggling to meet a burgeoning demand caused by the influx of workers coming to the Triumph Foods plant here.

The pork processing plant, which opened in January 2006, employs more than 2,200 people, about 50 percent of whom are Hispanic. Immigrants from other countries also have come to St. Joseph to work at the plant.”
