Food insecurity is a social determinant of health and plays a critical role in a person's ability to become and stay healthy. Individuals and families who lack consistent access to enough healthy food may have a higher risk of developing chronic diseases like obesity, hypertension and diabetes. Food insecurity can also make management of these and other health conditions more challenging. Further help on this page can be found by clicking here.
