While Pride Month recently gave us the opportunity to reflect on all of the contributions and successes of the LGBTQ community, it also demanded an awareness of the many challenges the community continues to confront. At MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger, we know that among those challenges is food insecurity a challenge too often unseen and unaddressed.
Even before the pandemic, many in the LGBTQ community faced unique barriers to food security. In part due to employment discrimination and lack of family support, queer people experience higher rates of poverty and food insecurity.

Military families face unique financial challenges and are thus vulnerable to food insecurity. This is felt acutely among women veterans, veterans of color and military spouses, who are typically women.

Soon, Americans will celebrate Independence Day a day that provides an opportunity to honor the sacrifices that those in the military, and their families, make in service to the United States. Certainly, we owe them our commitment that they will not live lives of instability and financial insecurity including food insecurity. For almost one-third of our currently serving military families, and approximately one-fourth of American’s veterans, that commitment has not been honored.
