To the Honorable, the Assembly:
Pursuant to s.
46.76(5), Wis. Stats., I am pleased to provide you with a copy of
Hunger Prevention in Wisconsin. This report was developed to be in compliance with the requirements of
1993 Wisconsin Act 168 which established a Board on Hunger charged with developing an annual plan "that documents areas of hunger and populations experiencing hunger within these areas and populations." According to the legislation, the report is to be submitted to the Governor, the Secretary, the Superintendent of Public Instruction and the appropriate standing committees of the state legislature.
The attached report acknowledges that Wisconsin continues to be a national leader with a healthy economy and low unemployment. Participation in the largest government food assistance program, the food stamp program, has declined. There are some signs however, that hunger and food insecurity exist for some Wisconsin residents. Evidence of this lies in the increase in demand for emergency food assistance in food pantries and soup kitchens in both rural and urban areas of our state.
The State Hunger Prevention Grants authorized in
1993 Wisconsin Act 168 have permitted local groups to develop some innovative responses to local hunger problems. Activities, which maximize contributions from many different sources and which, allow for a comprehensive integrated approach have the best chance of success. The report includes a set of recommendations that can serve as an agenda for future leaders in hunger prevention. As recommended, an Advisory Council on Hunger Prevention with leadership provided from both the private and public sectors could provide leadership for the implementation of these recommendations.
Sincerely,
Susan N. Dreyfus
Administrator
Chair, Board on Hunger
Referred to committee on Health.
