Food
Access to food resources is essential for the health and stability of immigrant and mixed-status families, who may face economic hardship, employment insecurity, or ineligibility for public benefits due to their immigration status. Food insecurity can lead to malnutrition, chronic health conditions, and added stress, especially for children. Despite these risks, many immigrant families struggle to access food assistance due to language barriers, fear of immigration enforcement, or confusion about eligibility. The resources provided here are meant to help families find food support, so that they can meet their basic needs with dignity and without fear.
