Policy With Coffee | Addressing Food Insecurity in the Region

To ensure a thriving community, it is vital to put food on the table and improve food security for those who are hungry, especially children and families. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is one of the best tools for combating hunger, which is why it is imperative we continue to invest in this essential tool.

In this Policy With a Splash of Coffee, we will explore the impact of food insecurity on our region, discuss the role policy plays in addressing hunger and share ways organizations are supporting policies such as SNAP.
