Several organizations and coalitions, which include frontline direct-service emergency food providers; anti-poverty, senior advocacy, and immigrants’ rights groups; public health and academic institutions; and healthy food retail advocates, have together developed a New York City and State Healthy Food for All Budget Request Platform as a unified approach to advocate for New York City and State budgets that contribute to reducing hunger and promoting access to healthy, affordable food for all New Yorkers. The platform includes active budget requests for city and state funding in Fiscal Year 2020 which will support concrete solutions to help New York City and State to continue to make progress in ending food insecurity and ensuring access to healthy affordable food for all New Yorkers.
