SETTING THE TABLE

Our vision is to strengthen families by building nutrition-stable communities.

 

WHAT ARE NUTRITION-STABLE COMMUNITIES?

By increasing the number of food-secure households, we are changing entire communities where people can thrive. Through our food equity research, client-centered services, and convening our community partners, we are creating a model to better nourish and serve local families by setting them up for long-term stability.

Nourish

nour·ish / ˈnəriSH / verb

Fresh, Healthy Food: Access to ample amounts of fresh, healthy food is essential to helping families thrive.

Serve

Data-Driven Innovation: Leveraging data to develop a portrait of hunger in our communities helps us better understand how families and individuals experience food insecurity—and how we can better serve their short- and long-term needs.

Convene

con·vene / kənˈvēn / verb

By partnering with local organizations that are committed to alleviating food insecurity, we are making an outsized impact on our communities through collaboration and research.

Crossroads is meeting the urgent need for quality, nutritious food by distributing meal essentials to an average of 1,100 households every month. In 2023, we distributed approximately 12.5 million pounds of food – enough for 10,416,666 meals!
