Maryland Hunger Solutions
Maryland Hunger Solutions (MHS) is an initiative of the Food Research and Action Center, a national research and advocacy organization that works to eradicate hunger in the United States. MHS works with state and local government agencies and nonprofit partners to maximize participation in federal nutrition programs, increase access to healthy, affordable food in low-income communities, and improve public policies in Maryland to reduce hunger and improve nutrition. This grant provides operating support to MHS as it works to respond to increased demand for assistance in accessing federal nutrition benefits in the wake of job losses caused by COVID-19.
Maryland Hunger Solutions
More than ten percent of Marylanders struggle with food insecurity, defined as a lack of consistent access to enough food for every person in a household to live an active, healthy life, and national data reveal stark racial disparities in rates of food insecurity. Maryland Hunger Solutions (MHS) works with state and local government agencies and nonprofit partners to maximize participation in federal nutrition programs, increase access to healthy, affordable food in low-income communities, and improve public policies in Maryland to reduce food insecurity and improve nutrition. This grant supports MHS’s Baltimore City SNAP outreach and enrollment campaign, which works to connect vulnerable populations with federally-funded SNAP (food stamp) benefits, a key strategy in reducing food insecurity in Maryland.
