SUPERVISOR HORVATH ANNOUNCES $201,500 IN FOOD SECURITY INVESTMENTS AS FAMILIES CONTINUE TO FACE SNAP-RELATED INSTABILITY
LOS ANGELES, CA – Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvath announced $201,500 in Third District investments this month to expand access to nutritious food and support community organizations responding to unprecedented levels of need. Despite the federal authorization of SNAP benefits last week, many households are still confronting the fallout of political delays that forced families to ration food, skip meals, or choose between groceries and rent.
“No one in Los Angeles County should have to navigate hunger because federal help came too late. The fear and uncertainty families have carried these past weeks matter, and our response in LA County is meeting that reality with nourishment,” said Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvath. “This significant investment in food security is one step — and we will continue strengthening this support so every person has the dignity of reliable care.”
The Third District is also supporting additional food distributions hosted by community-based organizations across the region. These efforts reflect a broader County focus on strengthening the food safety net so families have reliable access to nutritious food during a season centered on gathering and gratitude.
