Food Banks Need More Government Help to Address Food Insecurity Crisis | Eater
"Staff describe an unprecedented food-insecurity crisis that the charitable food network cannot meet on its own and say additional government support is essential. They warn that food banks will be unable to keep up with sustained demand for months or years and argue that bolstering SNAP benefits would be a more effective, less stigmatizing way to feed people — noting analyses that SNAP provides far more meals than food banks (roughly nine times as many) and that the program reaches families near or below the poverty line." - Jenny G.
