Various Locations in Northwest Indiana

The Working Hungry is a 30-minute film built around the stories of three families and through them, the stories of more than 700,000 people across the state of Indiana. Most of these are working families, and their hunger is hidden from those around them.  
At each screening, the film will be followed with refreshments and a discussion with local community leaders to bring attention to the issues of hunger and food access in our NWI Region.
The compelling documentary asks why, in a time of low unemployment and food abundance, is food insecurity and hunger so prevalent and what can be done. The Working Hungry will dive deep into the reality of food insecurity in Indiana and what more can be done to destigmatize the conversation, more clearly understand underlying causes, and truly end hunger.
Throughout 2023, screenings of The Working Hungry and relevant discussions will take place statewide, hosted by over 30 organizations.
