Central Oregon is not a stranger to food insecurity. With recent implications surrounding the COVID19 pandemic our community members are experiencing more strain in accessing food. Food insecurity is defined as the lack of consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life. Obstacles may include financial limitations, general geographical access, lack of reliable transportation, or impaired physical ability. We’ve created a list of resources from our partner organizations to help our community members access the food they need.
