Facing life’s hardships alone is a challenge no one should have to endure. When Denise’s life changed suddenly, she faced food insecurity and isolation. Thankfully, through our partners at IPH NY, we helped Denise reconnect to her community and find the support she deserves. If you or a loved one are facing similar struggles, you don't have to navigate them by yourself!

This is what the #foodismedicine movement looks like in action!
Through NASDOH, we've been part of the effort to connect policymakers with a simple truth: access to healthy food is life changing for New Yorkers and could be for all Americans. If the Accountable Produce is Medicine Act passes, it could mean real change for the 3 out of 4 Americans managing chronic disease -- with produce prescriptions integrated into their care, not siloed from it. Here's hoping this moves forward! ... See MoreSee Less
We love getting to share wins like this one!
A working single mother reached out to Catholic Charities of Onondaga County needing help with a security deposit and first month's rent so she and her young child could have a safe place to call home. With the right support, they were able to get her into an apartment and give this little family real stability for the first time in years. In her own words: "My 5-year-old cried when I told her we have a new house. She's so happy!"
If you or someone you know is struggling to find stable housing or needs food, help may be available. Getting screened takes just a few minutes and could open the door to support you didn't know existed!
