| Desc | CHILD NUTRITION INITIATIVES SCHOOL AGE INITIATIVES: HUNGER FREE VERMONT PROVIDES FREE, CUSTOMIZED COACHING AND TRAINING FOR SCHOOLS, TOWNS, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS IN ESTABLISHING, AND EXPANDING PARTICIPATION IN, ALL OF THE FEDERAL CHILD NUTRITION PROGRAMS THEY ARE ELIGIBLE TO OPERATE. THESE INCLUDE SCHOOL BREAKFAST, SCHOOL LUNCH, AFTERSCHOOL MEALS AND SNACKS, AND SUMMER MEALS. THESE CHILD NUTRITION PROGRAMS PROVIDE A RELIABLE SOURCE OF NUTRITION FOR SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN, AND ALSO REDUCE FAMILY HUNGER BY REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY LOW-INCOME FAMILIES MUST SPEND TO PROVIDE FOOD FOR THEIR CHILDREN. SINCE THE START OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WE HAVE FOCUSED ON HELPING SCHOOLS IMPLEMENT CREATIVE WAYS TO REACH ALL CHILDREN WITH MEALS, EVEN WHEN SCHOOLS HAVE BEEN CLOSED. WE WERE SO SUCCESSFUL THAT VERMONT WAS THE ONLY STATE IN THE COUNTRY THAT ACTUALLY SERVED MORE SCHOOL MEALS IN 2020 THAN WE DID IN 2019. SUMMER MEALS EXPANSION: BECAUSE SUMMER IS A PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE TIME FOR FOOD INSECURE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, AND BECAUSE SUMMER MEAL PROGRAMS REACH ONLY A FRACTION OF ALL LOW-INCOME CHILDREN WHO NEED THEM, HUNGER FREE VERMONT DEVOTES CONSIDERABLE STAFF TIME AND RESOURCES TO EXPANDING THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN WHO HAVE ACCESS TO A SUMMER MEAL SITE FOR THE FULL TEN WEEKS OF SUMMER VACATION EACH YEAR. WE DO THIS THROUGH DIRECT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, COMMUNITY ORGANIZING THROUGH OUR HUNGER COUNCILS, AND A CONCERTED MEDIA AND ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN. EVEN DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC, WE HELPED COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT VERMONT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SPECIAL SUMMER MEAL PROGRAM FLEXIBILITIES IN 2020 TO BREAK ALL PREVIOUS RECORDS FOR THE NUMBER OF FREE SUMMER MEALS PROVIDED TO CHILDREN, AND HELPED KEEP VERMONT'S LEVEL OF CHILD HUNGER TO ONE OF THE LOWEST IN THE NATION. UNIVERSAL SCHOOL MEALS CAMPAIGN: HUNGER AND FOOD INSECURITY AFFECT MANY VERMONT FAMILIES WHOSE HOUSEHOLD INCOME MAKES THEM INELIGIBLE FOR FREE SCHOOL MEALS, AND, BECAUSE OF THE STIGMA THEY FACE, MANY STUDENTS WILL NOT USE THEIR SCHOOL MEAL PROGRAM EVEN WHEN THEY ARE ELIGIBLE. IN ADDITION, WHEN ALL STUDENTS PARTICIPATE, SCHOOL MEAL PROGRAMS ARE MORE FINANCIALLY SUSTAINABLE, CAN AFFORD TO PURCHASE MORE LOCAL FOOD, AND CAN SERVE HIGHER QUALITY MEALS. HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS THEREFORE COMMITTED TO MAKING SCHOOL MEALS A UNIVERSAL AND FUNDAMENTAL PART OF PUBLIC EDUCATION AT ALL VERMONT SCHOOLS BY ADVOCATING TO BRING ABOUT STATE AND FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE AND ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE. THANKS TO FEDERAL WAIVERS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, NEARLY ALL SCHOOLS IN VERMONT HAVE OFFERED UNIVERSAL SCHOOL MEALS SINCE MARCH 2020. WE ARE WORKING TO MAKE THIS CHANGE PERMANENT SO NO CHILD LOSES ACCESS TO SCHOOL MEALS. EARLY CHILDHOOD NUTRITION: BECAUSE GOOD NUTRITION IS ESPECIALLY CRUCIAL WHILE A YOUNG CHILD'S BRAIN IS DEVELOPING, HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS HELPING CHILD CARE PROVIDERS BUILD NUTRITION INTO THE CORE OF THEIR PROGRAMS. WE CONDUCT FREE TRAININGS FOR DIRECTORS AND WORKERS REPRESENTING CHILDCARE CENTERS AND HOMES FROM AROUND THE STATE ON HOW TO INCORPORATE BETTER NUTRITION AND MORE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY INTO THEIR PROGRAMS, AND WE ARE ALSO PILOTING A PROJECT TO HELP THEM SCREEN FAMILIES THEY SERVE FOR HUNGER AND CONNECT THEM TO SNAP AND WIC. HUNGER FREE VERMONT ALSO SERVES AS THE VOICE FOR NUTRITIOUS MEALS IN CHILDCARE IN COALITIONS ADVOCATING FOR IMPROVING AND EXPANDING EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION AND CHILDCARE CAPACITY IN VERMONT. SINCE THE START OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WE HAVE ALSO HELPED CONNECT STRETCHED CHILDCARE PROVIDERS TO SCHOOLS AS A NEW SOURCE OF HEALTHY MEALS. | Desc |

| Desc | FOOD SECURITY INITIATIVES HUNGER FREE VERMONT IMPROVES ACCESS TO AND PARTICIPATION IN 3SQUARESVT (KNOWN NATIONALLY AS SNAP) WHICH IS ONE OF THE MOST RELIABLE, CONSISTENT, AND DIGNIFIED MEANS TO PREVENT HUNGER IN THE US. SNAP PROVIDES FUNDS ELIGIBLE LOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS CAN USE TO BUY FOOD TO PREPARE AT HOME. HUNGER FREE VERMONT WORKS WITH STATE AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS IN EVERY VERMONT COUNTY TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF THE PROGRAM, REMOVE BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION, AND TRAIN HUNDREDS OF SERVICE PROVIDERS WHO DO APPLICATION ASSISTANCE TO ENSURE ALL THOSE WHO ARE ELIGIBLE ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE. SINCE HUNGER FREE VERMONT BEGAN WORKING ON IMPROVING ACCESS, PARTICIPATION IN 3SQUARESVT HAS INCREASED BY MORE THAN 80%. OUR STATE IS NOW NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED FOR CONNECTING THOSE AT THE LOWEST INCOME LEVELS TO SNAP. OUR FOOD SECURITY INITIATIVES TEAM ALSO WORKS TO EXPAND 3SQUARESVT USE AT FARMERS MARKETS, RAISES PUBLIC AWARENESS ABOUT THE VALUE OF 3SQUARESVT, AND ENGAGES PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR PROTECTING THIS BIGGEST FOOD SAFETY NET FROM HARMFUL FEDERAL ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES AND CUTS. THIS PUBLIC AWARENESS AND FEDERAL ADVOCACY WORK WAS PARTICULARLY CRITICAL IN PREVENTING THOUSANDS IN VERMONT FROM BEING CUT OFF FROM SNAP IN EARLY 2020. SINCE THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HIT, WE HAVE FOCUSED ON GETTING ACCURATE INFORMATION ABOUT 3SQUARESVT AND OTHER WAYS TO GET HEALTHY FOOD OUT TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VERMONTERS, INCLUDING THOSE NEWLY UNEMPLOYED WHO HAVE NEVER BEFORE FACED HUNGER. ABENAKI FOOD SECURITY / FOOD SOVEREIGNTY PROJECTS: IN 2020, HUNGER FREE VERMONT BEGAN BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE LEADERS OF THE FOUR STATE- RECOGNIZED ABENAKI TRIBES IN VERMONT, WITH THE GOAL OF SEEKING FUNDING TO DIRECTLY REGRANT TO THE TRIBES FOR THEIR OWN COMMUNITY FOOD SOVEREIGNTY PROJECTS. IN ADDITION, WE ARE WORKING WITH THE TRIBES' COMMUNITY-BASED NONPROFITS TO PROVIDE CULTURALLY SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE FEDERAL NUTRITION PROGRAMS THAT CAN CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVED FOOD SECURITY FOR TRIBAL CITIZENS, WHO HAVE THE HIGHEST RATES OF HUNGER AND POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES LINKED TO FOOD INSECURITY OF ANY GROUP IN VERMONT. | Desc |

| Desc | ADVOCACY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: HUNGER FREE VERMONT RAISES AWARENESS ABOUT HUNGER AND ITS SOLUTIONS AND SUPPORTS COMMUNITIES AND LOCAL LEADERS IN TAKING ACTION TO END HUNGER THROUGH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT INITIATIVES, INCLUDING THROUGH THE HUNGER COUNCILS OF VERMONT. THE 10 HUNGER COUNCILS ARE MADE UP OF OVER 1,000 LOCAL LEADERS WHO ARE COMMITTED TO LEARNING ABOUT HUNGER AND WORKING TO ADDRESS HUNGER IN THEIR COMMUNITIES AND THE STATE BY COORDINATING EFFORTS AND SHARING INFORMATION.THE HUNGER COUNCILS ALSO RESPOND TO COMMUNITY NEEDS AND ARE A FORUM FOR HIGHLIGHTING AND ADDRESSING EMERGING CHALLENGES IN COMMUNITIES. THE HUNGER COUNCILS BECAME CRITICAL REGIONAL FORUMS FOR PLANNING EMERGENCY RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. MOST OF THE COUNCILS MET WEEKLY THROUGHOUT 2020, AND HELPED TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY FOOD NEEDS, LOCATE AND COORDINATE VOLUNTEERS FOR FOOD DISTRIBUTION EFFORTS, AND SHARE LOCAL NEEDS WITH STATE AND FEDERAL AUTHORITIES. ADVOCACY INITIATIVES: HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS VERMONT'S PRINCIPAL ANTI- HUNGER AUTHORITY AND LEADING FOOD SECURITY POLICY ADVOCATE. HUNGER FREE VERMONT'S ADVOCACY HAS LED TO, AMONG OTHER THINGS, VERMONT BECOMING THE FIRST STATE IN THE COUNTRY TO ELIMINATE REDUCED-PRICE SCHOOL MEALS, QUADRUPLING FUNDING FOR OUR STATE FARM TO SCHOOL AND EARLY CHILDHOOD GRANT PROGRAM, SECURING STATE FUNDING TO INCENTIVIZE LOCAL FOOD PURCHASING BY VERMONT SCHOOLS, AND ENSURING TRANSPARENCY AND STAKEHOLDER INPUT BEFORE ANY STATE ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES CAN BE MADE TO THE 3SQUARESVT PROGRAM. HUNGER FREE VERMONT HAS BEEN ASKED TO SHARE OUR ADVOCACY STRATEGIES WITH OTHER ANTI-HUNGER ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE COUNTRY, AND AS A RESULT WE HAVE HELPED MANY OTHER STATES ACHIEVE SOME OF THESE SAME OUTCOMES. IN 2019, HUNGER FREE VERMONT LAUNCHED THE UNIVERSAL SCHOOL MEALS CAMPAIGN, A MULTI- YEAR LEGISLATIVE EFFORT TO BRING SCHOOL MEALS TO ALL VERMONT STUDENTS AT NO COST TO THEIR FAMILIES. IN 2019 AND 2020, WE ALSO LED COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS TO PROTECT THE SNAP PROGRAM FROM HARMFUL RULE CHANGES AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL. HUNGER FREE VERMONT ONGOINGLY ADVOCATES FOR IMPROVED ACCESS TO ALL FEDERALLY FUNDED FOOD AND NUTRITION PROGRAMS AND POLICIES THAT SUPPORT THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF VERMONTERS.

| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 3 | IN FY2020 HUNGER FREE EXPANDED THE SCOPE OF THEIR PROGRAMMATIC WORK TO ADDRESS INCREASED FOOD SECURITY NEEDS IN VERMONT DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A | CHILD NUTRITION INITIATIVES SCHOOL AGE INITIATIVES: HUNGER FREE VERMONT PROVIDES FREE, CUSTOMIZED COACHING AND TRAINING FOR SCHOOLS, TOWNS, AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS IN ESTABLISHING, AND EXPANDING PARTICIPATION IN, ALL OF THE FEDERAL CHILD NUTRITION PROGRAMS THEY ARE ELIGIBLE TO OPERATE. THESE INCLUDE SCHOOL BREAKFAST, SCHOOL LUNCH, AFTERSCHOOL MEALS AND SNACKS, AND SUMMER MEALS. THESE CHILD NUTRITION PROGRAMS PROVIDE A RELIABLE SOURCE OF NUTRITION FOR SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN, AND ALSO REDUCE FAMILY HUNGER BY REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY LOW-INCOME FAMILIES MUST SPEND TO PROVIDE FOOD FOR THEIR CHILDREN. SINCE THE START OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WE HAVE FOCUSED ON HELPING SCHOOLS IMPLEMENT CREATIVE WAYS TO REACH ALL CHILDREN WITH MEALS, EVEN WHEN SCHOOLS HAVE BEEN CLOSED. WE WERE SO SUCCESSFUL THAT VERMONT WAS THE ONLY STATE IN THE COUNTRY THAT ACTUALLY SERVED MORE SCHOOL MEALS IN 2020 THAN WE DID IN 2019. SUMMER MEALS EXPANSION: BECAUSE SUMMER IS A PARTICULARLY VULNERABLE TIME FOR FOOD INSECURE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, AND BECAUSE SUMMER MEAL PROGRAMS REACH ONLY A FRACTION OF ALL LOW-INCOME CHILDREN WHO NEED THEM, HUNGER FREE VERMONT DEVOTES CONSIDERABLE STAFF TIME AND RESOURCES TO EXPANDING THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN WHO HAVE ACCESS TO A SUMMER MEAL SITE FOR THE FULL TEN WEEKS OF SUMMER VACATION EACH YEAR. WE DO THIS THROUGH DIRECT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, COMMUNITY ORGANIZING THROUGH OUR HUNGER COUNCILS, AND A CONCERTED MEDIA AND ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN. EVEN DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC, WE HELPED COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT VERMONT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SPECIAL SUMMER MEAL PROGRAM FLEXIBILITIES IN 2020 TO BREAK ALL PREVIOUS RECORDS FOR THE NUMBER OF FREE SUMMER MEALS PROVIDED TO CHILDREN, AND HELPED KEEP VERMONT'S LEVEL OF CHILD HUNGER TO ONE OF THE LOWEST IN THE NATION. UNIVERSAL SCHOOL MEALS CAMPAIGN: HUNGER AND FOOD INSECURITY AFFECT MANY VERMONT FAMILIES WHOSE HOUSEHOLD INCOME MAKES THEM INELIGIBLE FOR FREE SCHOOL MEALS, AND, BECAUSE OF THE STIGMA THEY FACE, MANY STUDENTS WILL NOT USE THEIR SCHOOL MEAL PROGRAM EVEN WHEN THEY ARE ELIGIBLE. IN ADDITION, WHEN ALL STUDENTS PARTICIPATE, SCHOOL MEAL PROGRAMS ARE MORE FINANCIALLY SUSTAINABLE, CAN AFFORD TO PURCHASE MORE LOCAL FOOD, AND CAN SERVE HIGHER QUALITY MEALS. HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS THEREFORE COMMITTED TO MAKING SCHOOL MEALS A UNIVERSAL AND FUNDAMENTAL PART OF PUBLIC EDUCATION AT ALL VERMONT SCHOOLS BY ADVOCATING TO BRING ABOUT STATE AND FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE AND ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGE. THANKS TO FEDERAL WAIVERS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, NEARLY ALL SCHOOLS IN VERMONT HAVE OFFERED UNIVERSAL SCHOOL MEALS SINCE MARCH 2020. WE ARE WORKING TO MAKE THIS CHANGE PERMANENT SO NO CHILD LOSES ACCESS TO SCHOOL MEALS. EARLY CHILDHOOD NUTRITION: BECAUSE GOOD NUTRITION IS ESPECIALLY CRUCIAL WHILE A YOUNG CHILD'S BRAIN IS DEVELOPING, HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS HELPING CHILD CARE PROVIDERS BUILD NUTRITION INTO THE CORE OF THEIR PROGRAMS. WE CONDUCT FREE TRAININGS FOR DIRECTORS AND WORKERS REPRESENTING CHILDCARE CENTERS AND HOMES FROM AROUND THE STATE ON HOW TO INCORPORATE BETTER NUTRITION AND MORE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY INTO THEIR PROGRAMS, AND WE ARE ALSO PILOTING A PROJECT TO HELP THEM SCREEN FAMILIES THEY SERVE FOR HUNGER AND CONNECT THEM TO SNAP AND WIC. HUNGER FREE VERMONT ALSO SERVES AS THE VOICE FOR NUTRITIOUS MEALS IN CHILDCARE IN COALITIONS ADVOCATING FOR IMPROVING AND EXPANDING EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION AND CHILDCARE CAPACITY IN VERMONT. SINCE THE START OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, WE HAVE ALSO HELPED CONNECT STRETCHED CHILDCARE PROVIDERS TO SCHOOLS AS A NEW SOURCE OF HEALTHY MEALS. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B | FOOD SECURITY INITIATIVES HUNGER FREE VERMONT IMPROVES ACCESS TO AND PARTICIPATION IN 3SQUARESVT (KNOWN NATIONALLY AS SNAP) WHICH IS ONE OF THE MOST RELIABLE, CONSISTENT, AND DIGNIFIED MEANS TO PREVENT HUNGER IN THE US. SNAP PROVIDES FUNDS ELIGIBLE LOW-INCOME HOUSEHOLDS CAN USE TO BUY FOOD TO PREPARE AT HOME. HUNGER FREE VERMONT WORKS WITH STATE AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS IN EVERY VERMONT COUNTY TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF THE PROGRAM, REMOVE BARRIERS TO PARTICIPATION, AND TRAIN HUNDREDS OF SERVICE PROVIDERS WHO DO APPLICATION ASSISTANCE TO ENSURE ALL THOSE WHO ARE ELIGIBLE ARE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE. SINCE HUNGER FREE VERMONT BEGAN WORKING ON IMPROVING ACCESS, PARTICIPATION IN 3SQUARESVT HAS INCREASED BY MORE THAN 80%. OUR STATE IS NOW NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED FOR CONNECTING THOSE AT THE LOWEST INCOME LEVELS TO SNAP. OUR FOOD SECURITY INITIATIVES TEAM ALSO WORKS TO EXPAND 3SQUARESVT USE AT FARMERS MARKETS, RAISES PUBLIC AWARENESS ABOUT THE VALUE OF 3SQUARESVT, AND ENGAGES PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR PROTECTING THIS BIGGEST FOOD SAFETY NET FROM HARMFUL FEDERAL ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES AND CUTS. THIS PUBLIC AWARENESS AND FEDERAL ADVOCACY WORK WAS PARTICULARLY CRITICAL IN PREVENTING THOUSANDS IN VERMONT FROM BEING CUT OFF FROM SNAP IN EARLY 2020. SINCE THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HIT, WE HAVE FOCUSED ON GETTING ACCURATE INFORMATION ABOUT 3SQUARESVT AND OTHER WAYS TO GET HEALTHY FOOD OUT TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VERMONTERS, INCLUDING THOSE NEWLY UNEMPLOYED WHO HAVE NEVER BEFORE FACED HUNGER. ABENAKI FOOD SECURITY / FOOD SOVEREIGNTY PROJECTS: IN 2020, HUNGER FREE VERMONT BEGAN BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE LEADERS OF THE FOUR STATE- RECOGNIZED ABENAKI TRIBES IN VERMONT, WITH THE GOAL OF SEEKING FUNDING TO DIRECTLY REGRANT TO THE TRIBES FOR THEIR OWN COMMUNITY FOOD SOVEREIGNTY PROJECTS. IN ADDITION, WE ARE WORKING WITH THE TRIBES' COMMUNITY-BASED NONPROFITS TO PROVIDE CULTURALLY SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE FEDERAL NUTRITION PROGRAMS THAT CAN CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVED FOOD SECURITY FOR TRIBAL CITIZENS, WHO HAVE THE HIGHEST RATES OF HUNGER AND POOR HEALTH OUTCOMES LINKED TO FOOD INSECURITY OF ANY GROUP IN VERMONT. |
| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4C | ADVOCACY AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: HUNGER FREE VERMONT RAISES AWARENESS ABOUT HUNGER AND ITS SOLUTIONS AND SUPPORTS COMMUNITIES AND LOCAL LEADERS IN TAKING ACTION TO END HUNGER THROUGH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT INITIATIVES, INCLUDING THROUGH THE HUNGER COUNCILS OF VERMONT. THE 10 HUNGER COUNCILS ARE MADE UP OF OVER 1,000 LOCAL LEADERS WHO ARE COMMITTED TO LEARNING ABOUT HUNGER AND WORKING TO ADDRESS HUNGER IN THEIR COMMUNITIES AND THE STATE BY COORDINATING EFFORTS AND SHARING INFORMATION.THE HUNGER COUNCILS ALSO RESPOND TO COMMUNITY NEEDS AND ARE A FORUM FOR HIGHLIGHTING AND ADDRESSING EMERGING CHALLENGES IN COMMUNITIES. THE HUNGER COUNCILS BECAME CRITICAL REGIONAL FORUMS FOR PLANNING EMERGENCY RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. MOST OF THE COUNCILS MET WEEKLY THROUGHOUT 2020, AND HELPED TO IDENTIFY COMMUNITY FOOD NEEDS, LOCATE AND COORDINATE VOLUNTEERS FOR FOOD DISTRIBUTION EFFORTS, AND SHARE LOCAL NEEDS WITH STATE AND FEDERAL AUTHORITIES. ADVOCACY INITIATIVES: HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS VERMONT'S PRINCIPAL ANTI- HUNGER AUTHORITY AND LEADING FOOD SECURITY POLICY ADVOCATE. HUNGER FREE VERMONT'S ADVOCACY HAS LED TO, AMONG OTHER THINGS, VERMONT BECOMING THE FIRST STATE IN THE COUNTRY TO ELIMINATE REDUCED-PRICE SCHOOL MEALS, QUADRUPLING FUNDING FOR OUR STATE FARM TO SCHOOL AND EARLY CHILDHOOD GRANT PROGRAM, SECURING STATE FUNDING TO INCENTIVIZE LOCAL FOOD PURCHASING BY VERMONT SCHOOLS, AND ENSURING TRANSPARENCY AND STAKEHOLDER INPUT BEFORE ANY STATE ADMINISTRATIVE CHANGES CAN BE MADE TO THE 3SQUARESVT PROGRAM. HUNGER FREE VERMONT HAS BEEN ASKED TO SHARE OUR ADVOCACY STRATEGIES WITH OTHER ANTI-HUNGER ORGANIZATIONS AROUND THE COUNTRY, AND AS A RESULT WE HAVE HELPED MANY OTHER STATES ACHIEVE SOME OF THESE SAME OUTCOMES. IN 2019, HUNGER FREE VERMONT LAUNCHED THE UNIVERSAL SCHOOL MEALS CAMPAIGN, A MULTI- YEAR LEGISLATIVE EFFORT TO BRING SCHOOL MEALS TO ALL VERMONT STUDENTS AT NO COST TO THEIR FAMILIES. IN 2019 AND 2020, WE ALSO LED COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS TO PROTECT THE SNAP PROGRAM FROM HARMFUL RULE CHANGES AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL. HUNGER FREE VERMONT ONGOINGLY ADVOCATES FOR IMPROVED ACCESS TO ALL FEDERALLY FUNDED FOOD AND NUTRITION PROGRAMS AND POLICIES THAT SUPPORT THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF VERMONTERS. FOOD AS MEDICINE: HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS ALSO COMMITTED TO BETTER CONNECTING HUNGER AS A SOCIAL DETERMINANT OF HEALTH WITHIN THE HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. IN COLLABORATION WITH THE HEALTHCARE COMMUNITY, HUNGER FREE VERMONT IS EDUCATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF PROVIDERS ABOUT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN HUNGER AND HEALTH AND IS IMPLEMENTING FOOD INSECURITY SCREENING AND REFERRAL PROTOCOLS IN MEDICAL SETTINGS. |
