Healthy Food, Healthy Lives

Photo by Alexander Van Steenberge on Unsplash The COVID19 pandemic exacerbated food insecurity across the country, including in NYS. Food pantries were ramping up their supplies as the food needs of individuals and families outstripped pantry supplies. But what has happened since the pandemic? The New York Health Foundation undertook an analysis of food insufficiency across the state from May 2020 through October 2024 and issued a report on their findings entitled Hunger on the Rise: New York’s Food Insufficiency Rates Hit New Highs and Exceed Pandemic Levels . HealthCetera producer and host Diana Mason, RN, discussed the report with Julia McCarthy, Senior Program Officer for the NYHealth Foundation, who helps to lead the foundation’s Healthy Food, Healthy Lives priority area, that aims to create a more equitable food system connecting all New Yorkers with the food they need to thrive. This interview first aired on HealthCetera in the Catskills on WIOX Radio on May 21, 2025. The post Healthy Food, Healthy Lives appeared first on HealthCetera .
