The Face of Hunger in the Brazos Valley
As part of the Hunger in America 2014 national study, the Brazos Valley Food Bank collected responses to the Agency Survey from 44 partner agencies. The Brazos Valley Food Bank followed up with eight partner agencies, conducting site visits to complete the Client Survey portion of the study. While this data was incorporated into the national totals, it was also included in a report specifically for the Brazos Valley Food Bank to provide a snapshot of needs and services in the Brazos Valley. This executive summary highlights several significant selections of the local data for both agencies and clients.
