What does hunger look like in your community?
Feeding America’s annual Map the Meal Gap study, a nationwide
assessment of the state of food insecurity, finds that in Hartford and
Tolland counties 137,480 people can’t be sure where their next meal is
coming from. This is a decrease of 3,100 people compared to last year’s
report — the first time the figure has dropped since the study began
five years ago.This result gives us hope that our new plan to address hunger on all fronts is working. While the number itself is still far too high, we’re encouraged about the overall direction of the number. Learn more about our plan to solve hunger in Greater Hartford.
