Food Insecurity: A Growing Challenge
Nearly 900,000 Kiwis are facing food insecurity. This is a quiet but urgent crisis affecting families across Aotearoa. A recent article from The Conversation highlights how rising costs and housing pressures are making it harder for people to access nutritious food. At Community Link, we’re working to meet this need with care and community support.
