The USDA has reported that food insecurity rates were significantly higher in 2020 compared to pre-pandemic levels, and food insecurity will likely remain a significant issue for many households in the coming years.

According to the latest data, approximately 1.4 million people in New York State were food insecure, which accounted for about 7% of the state's population.

This means that many New York residents are unable to access or afford enough nutritious food to sustain a healthy lifestyle.

Food insecurity can have a significant impact on mental health. Those who experience food insecurity often report feeling anxious, stressed, and depressed.

These feelings can be particularly strong among kids, who may not understand why they do not have enough food to eat or may feel ashamed or embarrassed about their situation.

When people do not have access to healthy food, they may struggle to maintain their health and well-being.

This can lead to increased healthcare costs and decreased productivity at work.

It can also have broader implications for the state's economy, as a workforce that is not healthy and productive can hurt economic growth.
