Hunger and the Cost-of-Living Crisis

Join Community Champions to learn how the cost-of-living crisis affects food security for working individuals and families in Brown County. This event is suitable for all backgrounds – no experience necessary. So, if you care about feeding everyone in our community, spend your lunch hour with us and leave ready for action!

• An overview of Brown County’s food system: components, gaps, challenges, opportunities
• Updates on the status of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), known as FoodShare in Wisconsin
• How to help reduce stigma regarding food pantry usage
