With the pandemic and lockdowns stretching on, many people are going hungry. We look at food insecurity among low-income households by first getting an understanding of what it means, and what needs to be done to address it. Then, we’ll look at how the lack of food impacts communities. Finally, we hear from a food bank about the work they’ve been doing the past year.
