Food Insecurity
Food Tower growing Lettuce in the Alternative to Incarceration building in East Harlem, NY
Exodus Transitional Community continues to address issues that intersect food justice and social justice. Food insecurity has impacted our communities (justice-impacted communities) for decades. Every Wednesday, we hand out FREE fresh vegetables, canned goods, and prepared food trays in the front of our East Harlem office – between 123rd and 124th on Third Avenue. Our newest additions to tackling food insecurity include are our NEW Tower Gardens! Each tower is growing different types of lettuce and vegetables, that we plan to provide as healthy alternatives to youth and adult participants!
Check out our Food Insecurity presentation for more information and resources on food insecurity.
