Too many Louisiana families live on the edge of hunger. Since beginning our partnership with UrbanFootprint, we’ve uncovered sobering data around the impact of COVID-19 on our state’s food security crisis. Our most recent analysis reveals that, since the start of the pandemic, the number of food-insecure households in Louisiana have increased by 44%. Of these households, 69% have not had access to nutritionally adequate food in the past week. And this crisis is disproportionately affecting communities of color, in low-income neighborhoods -- families that are already living on the margins of poverty and limited socioeconomic opportunity.
