We are so sorry to everyone who was disrupted
We had intentionally made the Zoom calls open to ensure that anyone could access them easily, but unfortunately the link was posted on a website that encourages people to hack into Zoom meetings
We will have to restructure the Zoom set up in the future

In the meantime โ€“ the agenda is here: https://tinyurl.com/mr43adks and the minutes from last time: https://tinyurl.com/4jparfcx .
We will reach out soon with a rescheduled meeting.

Thank you all for your understanding and patience

We are in a hunger crisis and New Yorkers are experiencing food insecurity at a strikingly disproportionate rate.

08/09/2023

The pandemic caused a drastic increase in food insecurity and the numbers have been getting worse as government support wanes. Since July of 2021, NYS has seen an 87% increase in the number of people without enough to eat over a 1-week period compared to 35% nationwide.

Support frontline community food providers as they work to meet the increasing need.

We are in the midst of a hunger crisis in New York. Food pantries in the Capital Region are currently experiencing the highest demands that we have seen in our over 40-year history.

Consider these recent quotes from Albany County food pantry coordinators:
