Goal 7

Food supply and food pantries


Study how to maximize state and local distribution of donated and publicly purchased food.


The Departments of Family Services and Agriculture are proposing funding for a two-part project: (1.) Hire a consultant to study and evaluate the current capacity of non-profit organizations to maximize state and local distribution and minimize waste of donated and publicly purchased food for needy children, families, and elderly. The intent is to examine the current distribution network and identify best practices and enhancement and improvement opportunities.
