COVID-19 and Youth Food Insecurity in Greater Lowell
Community Partners,
As we look to address our community's urgent needs from the GLCF COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund, we ask that you take a few moments to share your knowledge on Youth Food Insecurity (birth through teens). Please don't hesitate to reach out to me should you wish to have a more in-depth conversation on this systemic problem.
Thank you.
