Summary
Dallas-Fort Worth is in the grips of a worsening hunger crisis, with over a million people now food insecure — a 32% jump since 2020 — as soaring food and gas prices crush low-income families. The Tarrant Area Food Bank, serving thirteen counties and leading the nation in food insecurity, is racing to meet demand through school-based markets and SNAP help, but warns it can’t do it alone. With federal funding under threat, they’ve already added $1 million to their 2027 budget to prepare for cuts — and are calling on communities to step up with donations and volunteers, while urging stronger national policies to support both farmers and families in need.
