The nation’s largest hunger relief charity, Feeding America, released the findings from a recent survey of member agencies and food pantry visitors.  The report sheds light on the real life challenges faced by individuals and families in the U.S. struggling to make ends meet. Well over half of Feeding America client households have to make difficult decisions between paying for food and utilities, transportation, medical care, and housing. The report also confirms research of the Interdisciplinary Center for Food Security showing that client households are more likely to have a member with high blood pressure or diabetes, compared to state or national averages.
