Kay Ivey on Welfare & Poverty

Build public movement to end childhood hunger

ECHA focuses to increase Alabama families' economic stability, cultivate a strong regional food system, build public will to end childhood hunger, improve the food assistance safety net for Alabama's children, support community action, and enhance children's health and prevent obesity.

Child hunger in America has increased significantly since the great recession of 2008. Of the one million plus children who live in Alabama, more than one in four live in families that experience food hardships. Child hunger is not just a food problem but health problem, education problem and work force problem.

Hunger is preventable in our State, but we must work together. Together we can start a public movement to combat childhood hunger in Alabama.
