If you have ever had to rely on a food bank box or had to go through the lengthy process of applying for SNAP benefits, while your kid asked for something to eat, you know that food insecurity is inextricably linked to poor mental health. Living paycheck to paycheck is tough, but it’s tougher when that money doesn’t quite stretch to buy enough food month after month.

Still, there is help. 🧡And there is no shame in asking for support, whether from a loving family member or a food bank.
