As the Farm Bill deliberations move to conference in the next few weeks, Feeding Indiana’s Hungry commends the Senate’s adoption of additional funding for The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), thanks to the leadership of Chairman Pat Roberts, Ranking Member Debbie Stabenow, and Senator Joe Donnelly. Our member food banks depend on TEFAP to address the significant need for food assistance in communities, nationwide. We will continue to work with representatives from both the House and Senate, as the legislation moves to conference, to strengthen SNAP and TEFAP.
Feeding Indiana's Hungry was formed in 2005 to address the vital concern of feeding
Indiana's residents. By drawing on varied resources within public agencies and the private sector, we hope to provide hunger relief for those in need throughout Indiana.
