The challenges that food insecurity can create — the agonizing choices like buying groceries or paying bills, purchasing food or medicine, or even having to forgo some meals to ensure their children have enough to eat — are overwhelming enough without carrying the extra burden of stigma.
In the same way that there will always be a need for programs like rental and utility assistance, free medical care, and mental health services, there will always be a need for food assistance; however, we can move the needle on food insecurity by addressing the root causes.
Offering immediate relief to ensure that children and families do not go to bed hungry is part of a broader strategy that addresses the underlying causes of hunger, including poverty, inflation, lack of employment opportunities, and systemic inequalities.
