Community Food Advocates believes the government has a fundamental responsibility and an unmatched capacity to end poverty and its consequence: hunger. To that end, CFA advocates for high-impact public policy change that ensures all New Yorkers have access to healthy, affordable, plentiful, and culturally appropriate foods.
